HC Deb 22 February 1971 vol 812 c43W
Mr. Leslie Huckfield

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many employees will become redundant as a result of the acquisition of the former Transport Holding Company's stake in Skyways Coach Air; what compensation they will receive; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Peyton

I understand that the new owners wish to re-employ the majority of the staff. The Transport Holding Company has undertaken to make such payments to those who are made redundant as would in its opinion be fair and reasonable in the light of the contracts of employment.
