HC Deb 19 March 1962 vol 656 c7W
69. Mr. Fitch

asked the Minister of Power what direction he has given to the Chairman of the Gas Council about the maximum pay increase to be offered by the Gas Council to its workers in the current pay rise negotiations.

Mr. Wood

None, but I have impressed on the Chairman the importance which the Government attaches to its incomes policy and the need to conduct the present negotiations within the framework of that policy.
