HC Deb 02 June 1981 vol 5 c324W
37. Mr. Ancram

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what progress has been made towards drafting a code of practice on improved consultative procedures at work.

Mr. Waddington

My right hon. Friend and I have consistently urged management to improve voluntarily its consultative and other arrangements for employee involvement and have drawn its attention to the many valuable guides and codes of good practice which have been issued in the past two years by bodies such as the CBI, the British Institute of Management, the Industrial Participation Association, the Industrial Society and the Institute of Personnel Management.
