HC Deb 08 August 1972 vol 842 cc341-2W
50. Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will give the total number of working days lost by industrial disputes between 1st August, 1971, and 30th June, 1972, where such disputes are known to have taken place before the arbitration machinery of the industries had been exhausted.

Mr. Chichester-Clark

I regret that separate information is not available for stoppages which occurred before arbitration machinery had been exhausted.
