HC Deb 01 May 1967 vol 746 c7W
46. Mr. Kenneth Lewis

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is satisfied with the co-operation he is receiving from the trade unions in support of making full use of Government training centres; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Hattersley

The arrangements for training at Government training centres are in general the subject of agreement with both sides of industry at national level. It follows that trainees are normally accepted into employment with the co-operation of the trade unions. In some areas, however, there are local difficulties with trade unions over certain trades.
