HC Deb 30 January 1961 vol 633 c73W
61. Mr. John Hall

asked the Minister of Labour if he has considered the Interim Report on the effects of the tally clerks' strike on port users, a copy of which has been sent to him; and what he intends to do to prevent actions of this kind damaging the national economy in the future.

Mr. Hare:

Yes. The House will know that I appointed a Committee to consider the difficulties concerning tally clerks in the Port of London immediately after the strike was over. When reporting this Committee made recommendation to assist in preventing a recurrence of the recent troubles and to improve the efficiency of the Port. That National Dock Labour Board and others concerned are giving urgent consideration to these recommendations.
