HC Deb 27 June 1969 vol 785 c316W
Mr. Biffen

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what representations her Department made to the Trades Union Congress concerning the recent strike of women lavatory cleaners at Joseph Lucas; and with what result.

Mr. Hattersley

My officers discussed the strike with the T.U.C. on 20th June. The strikers met on 21st June and decided to return to work on 23rd June, but unfortunately production was later affected by a further dispute at one of the factories concerned.
