• A far-ranging inquiry into road haulage industrial relations may be ordered by the Ministry of Employment and Productivity. The matter could be placed before Mr. George Woodcock's new Commission for Industrial Relations, The Ministry is considering this move because Labour MPs are concerned about poor labour relations. They believe that the main problem is the large number of small haulage companies who refuse to recognize unions unless they are forced to do so by strikes or other industrial action.
If an inquiry is ordered, it would be the first major industry-wide investigation by the Commission.
