HC Deb 25 October 1988 vol 139 c195W
120. Mr. Soames

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what recent representations he has received about single union agreements; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholls

My right hon. Friend has received no such representations. The Government's view is that single union agreements can have a valuable part to play in improving future industrial relations. It is for the parties directly concerned to decide what arrangements best suit their own circumstances.
