HC Deb 29 June 1966 vol 730 c272W
109. Mr. Roebuck

asked the Minister of Transport if, in the public interest she will give a general direction to the nationalised transport undertakings to end sex discrimination in their sick pay schemes.

Mr. John Morris

No. The undertakings' attention has been drawn to the reply given by my hon. Friend the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Labour on 2nd May, 1965. Their sick pay schemes are, of course, a matter for negotiation between them and the appropriate trade unions.
