asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will now publish the Gennard report on the inquiry into the closed shop commissioned by his Department.

Professor Gennard is still considering the detailed comments he has received on the initial draft of his report but I understand that he expects to submit a final report to this Department shortly. The report will form the basis of a book to be published by Professor Gennard and his fellow authors and will also be made public by this Department.
