HC Deb 20 December 1966 vol 738 c264W
76. Mr Sandys

asked the Minister of Labour, what action the Government now propose to take to secure the elimination of restrictive practices by trades unions and employers, which are wasting manpower, increasing costs and making British exports less competitive.

Mr. Gunter

The Government will continue to encourage industry at all levels to promote measures to improve efficiency by both management and workers. Where appropriate, we shall take initiatives similar to those already taken in a number of industries.
