§ Sir C. Osborneasked the Minister of Labour what assurance he has sought from the trades unions that retrained people will be allowed to work at their new trades.
§ Mrs. Shirley WilliamsThe arrangements for training at Government Training Centres are, in general, the subject of agreement with both sides of industry at national level. At national level the unions co-operate and there is therefore no need to seek an assurance. In a few areas, however, there are local difficulties with trades unions over certain trades which we attempt to overcome by local discussions.
