HL Deb 06 June 1978 vol 392 cc1215-6WA
Baroness WARD of NORTH TYNESIDE

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What steps they propose to take to ensure that the Camden and Islington Area Health Authority (Teaching) immediately discontinues its discriminatory practice of consulting with TUC-affiliated organisations and excluding the Royal College of Nursing, a certificated union and recognised NHS staff association, from these consultations.

Lord WELLS-PESTELL

The Camden and Islington Area Health Authority (Teaching) is prepared to consult all nationally recognised staff organisations on appropriate matters and does not discriminate against any individual staff association.
