42. Mr. Gow

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he is satisfied with the operation of the present closed shop legislation as it affects the freedom of the individual; and if he will make a statement.

I am satisfied with the current legislation as it relates to the closed shop. The hon. Member is, I am sure, well aware by now of the Government's position on the closed shop.
