Mr. Llewellyn
asked the Minister of Labour whether he will now appoint a tribunal, on similar lines to that referred to in the Quiz on the recall of Army and Royal Air Force Reservists, composed of trade unionists, employers and independent members, before which Plymouth Brethren and others who have a conscientious objection to joining A trade union may appear.
Mr. Lee
No, Sir.
Mr. Llewellyn

Mr. Braine
Does not the Parliamentary Secretary agree that refusal to join a trade union is hardly a greater crime than refusal to bear arms in the country's defence, and that this discrimination is both unfair and undemocratic?
