HC Deb 14 June 1971 vol 819 c3W
33. Mr. Ronald King Murray

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether, in order to promote an improvement in industrial relations, he will introduce legislation to require that no director be appointed to the board of a company registered under the Companies Acts without the support in a secret ballot of a majority of the individual shareholders eligible to vote.

Mr. John Davies

No. The proposal is not practicable.
