HC Deb 05 July 1955 vol 543 c84W
88. Sir C. Taylor

asked the Minister of Labour if he will make a statement on the dock strike.

Sir W. Monckton

I explained the circumstances of this dispute to the House on 23rd June. The Disputes Committee of the Trades Union Congress subsequently decided that the National Amalgamated Stevedores and Dockers. should exclude from their organisation the members recruited by them in Hull, Birkenhead, Liverpool and Manchester, and the Executive Committee of the Union accepted that decision. A full resumption of work took place yesterday in all the ports affected.
