Trade Unions

HC Deb 28 January 1991 vol 184 c410W

39. Mr. Allen

To ask the Minister for the Civil Service when he next intends to meet the leaders of civil service trade unions to discuss morale.

Mr. Renton

I intend to follow the practice of my predecessors and meet civil service trades union representatives as appropriate.

Mr. Skinner

To ask the Minister for the Civil Service when he last met the leaders of trade unions representing the civil service to discuss changes to civil service conditions of work and employment.

Mr. Renton

I have not yet met the civil service trade union leaders to discuss civil service issues. I shall, of course, do so as appropriate. I did, however, meet representatives of the Institution of Professionals, Managers and Specialists on Monday 21 January for discussions on heritage funding issues and the national museums and galleries.
