Mr. Parry

asked the Secretary of State for Employment (1) if he will make a statement on the Under-Secretary of State's recent meeting with representatives of the Transport and General Workers Union concerning the question of the extension of the 1967 dock labour scheme;

(2) what representations he has received for the extension of the 1967 dock labour scheme; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Waddington

I refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Brigg and Scunthorpe (Mr. Brown) on 10 May.—[Vol. 23, c.182.] I have received no representations favouring extension of the dock labour scheme apart from those referred to in that reply.
