Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

TRANSPORT and General Workers Union Scottish commercial group secretary Peter Talbot has called for the union to block any moves by the Road Haulage Association to put wage negotiations on a national level.

And the Scottish commercial trade group has submitted a resolution to the union's delegate conference due to be held next month calling for the block.

The resolution stresses that any bid to introduce a statutory Joint Industrial Council to negotiate wages throughout the industry should be opposed.

Mr Talbot explained that there is a possibility that employers in the industry might try to put pressure on the Government to have the council set up.
