HC Deb 28 February 1966 vol 725 cc190-1W
72. Mr. John Page

asked the Minister of Labour what success he has so far had in securing the abandonment of the restrictive labour practices that are identified in reports of the National Board for Prices and Incomes.

Mr. Thornton

As the reports make clear, these are problems which must be tackled jointly by the managements and unions in the industries concerned. The Government will continue to encourage the necessary action by managements and unions and my right hon. Friend is always ready to give any help he can in negotiations.
