Mr. Edward M. Taylor
asked the First Secretary of State and Secretary of State for Economic Affairs what representations he has received from trade unions and associated bodies on the Prices and Incomes Bill.
Mr. William Rodgers
Representations have been received from trade unions and trade union branches and the T.U.C. have raised a number of points which my right hon. Friend hopes to discuss with them very shortly.
Mr. Taylor
In the light of these and other representations, do the Government intend to pursue the Prices and Incomes Bill, and will the new Bill contain the old Clause 14 which laid down substantial fines for those who struck or advocated strikes?
Mr. Rodgers
We made it clear that we intended to reintroduce the Bill, but I cannot anticipate any details.
