HC Deb 22 May 1952 vol 501 c67W
53. Mr. Hollis

asked the Minister of Labour what communication he has received from the Amalgamated Engineering Union concerning the repudiation of the Relaxation of Customs Agreement; and what effect this will have on the position of dilutees in Air Ministry Maintenance Units.

Sir W. Monckton

I have seen Press reports about the resolution adopted by the National Committee of the Amalgamated Engineering Union regarding the Relaxation of Customs Agreement in the engineering industry. I have, however, received no communication from the Executive of the Union about this resolution and am not in a position to express any view as to its possible effects.
