HC Deb 22 October 1976 vol 917 c599W
Mr. Ridley

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether the increase in earnings of the tunnelling workers on the Dartford Tunnel and in Newcastle comes within the current phase of incomes policy.

Mr. Harold Walker

The civil engineering industry, like all other industries, is expected to observe the provisions of the incomes policy. I am not aware of any settlement on these two projects which infringe the pay limits.
