§ Mr. Biggs-Davisonasked the Minister of Labour whether he will make a statement about the stoppage of work on parts of the Central Underground Line of London Transport.
§ Mr. Iain MacleodOn Monday, 9th June, a small proportion of the workers on the London Transport Underground system decided, against the advice of the Executive of the National Union of Railwaymen, to respond to unofficial appeals to support the London busmen in their dispute by not working on Mondays. I am informed that of the 1,220 operating staff engaged in running the services on the Central Line only 78 failed to report for duty.
