HC Deb 13 March 1956 vol 550 cc22-3W
77. Mr. Remnant

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will consult the British Productivity Council as to the best methods of improving relations in industry.

Mr. Iain Macleod

No. Although good relations in industry certainly have a bearing on problems of productivity the two subjects give rise to different considerations. The National Joint Advisory Council on which both sides of industry are represented is the appropriate body to consult on the former subject and I am already doing this.
