HC Deb 02 May 1978 vol 949 cc70-1W
39. Mr. George Rodgers

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service has been called in to the industrial dispute in Lancashire which has prevented the installation of telephones taking place since November 1977.

Mr. Harold Walker

No. I am hopeful that the dispute between the Post Office and the POEU can be resolved through direct negotiations between the parties concerned.
