HC Deb 16 January 1990 vol 165 c231W
37. Mr. Harris

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what representations he has received about the code of practice for trade union ballots for industrial action; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholls

Over 50 responses were received on this draft code of practice during the public consultation period which followed its publication in November 1988. A modified draft was laid before Parliament last year, and the next stage is to seek approval by resolution of each House.
