HC Deb 29 June 1972 vol 839 cc411-2W
Sir G. Nabarro

asked the Prime Minister whether he will make a statement on his discussions at the working dinner party with heads of nationalised industries, and the decisions on price restraint and co-operation with the Confederation of British Industry and the Trades Union Congress.

The Prime Minister

I welcomed this opportunity to exchange views with the chairman on a variety of current issues of economic and industrial policy. On the second part of my hon. Friend's Question, I understand the CBI, which is well aware of the Government's hope that it will be able to extend its price restraint scheme, will be taking a decision on this matter next month. I welcome the current discussions between the CBI and the TUC on ways of improving industrial relations.
