HC Deb 29 November 1961 vol 650 c57W
87. Mr. P. Williams

asked the Minister of Labour what action he is taking to get greater co-operation between the trade unions involved in the shipbuilding industry.

Mr. Hare

I have been discussing the problems of the ship-building industry with representatives of the trade unions and of the employers. With the agreement of both sides I am now arranging joint discussions under my chairmanship. I hope that these talks will lead to better understanding between the unions and within the industry as a whole.
