HC Deb 10 April 1967 vol 744 c140W
Mr. Whitaker

asked the First Secretary of State and Secretary of State for Economic Affairs what representations he has made to the Confederation of British Industry for it to propose a prices policy similar to the incomes policy proposed by the Trades Union Council; and what response he has received.

Mr. Frederick Lee

My right hon. Friend has urged on the Confederation of British Industry the importance of exercising fully the influence they have with their members about the determination of prices and incomes in conformity with the criteria of the prices and incomes policy and the Confederation have assured him that they intend to continue to cooperate in this way.
