The acting secretary to the Board is Mr. M. Carlin, who has been seconded from I Ministry of Labour following the preced4 established in the initial setting up of previc Boards. For the past seven years Mr. Cat has been on service in South America deali with labour relations whilst seconded to I Foreign Office.
Discussing the problems facing the Bol. with Mr. Carlin on Tuesday in his temport office near Regent's Park, London, I was ti that the first meeting of the Board was expeci to be early in October. The large number establishments to be requested, rather th the total payroll, could be a better yardsti as to the size and complexity of the Mit administration problem. If the pattern in existi Boards was followed the benefit of the ea impetus surrounding the setting up of the Rc Transport Board might best be exploited putting a lower limit on the size of establi: ment to be included as a first stage.
