HC Deb 20 October 1976 vol 917 cc490-1W
Mr. Rooker

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if, pursuant to his answer to the hon. Member for Birmingham, Perry Barr, on 8th June 1976 (Official Report, c. 643), he will now name the British companies employing South African workers who have refused to co-operate with his Department in supplying on a regular basis information relating to the wages and conditions of South African workers.

Mr. Dell

No, but I expect to be able to do so by the end of the year when all the firms concerned will have had a reasonable opportunity to respond in the light of my right hon. Friend's guidance issued on 12th December 1975. I look to any firms concerned which have not so far published information, and which will be unable to do so before the end of the year, to clarify their intentions publicly as soon as possible.
