HC Deb 27 May 1965 vol 713 c105W
22. Mr. Ridley

asked the First Secretary of State and Secretary of State for Economic Affairs if he will refer the recent settlement of the postmen's pay claim to the National Incomes and Prices Commission.

Mr. Albu

No. As the Joint Under-Secretary of State explained in reply to a Question by the hon. Member for Surbiton (Mr. Fisher) on 29th April, we consider that the terms of this settlement were justified in the circumstances and I do not think that an inquiry by the Board would serve any useful purpose now.
