• Mr Ken Jackson, TGWU national secretary of the commercial road transport group, continues his campaign for a dissolution of the industry's Wages Council in the March issue of The Highway, the union newspaper. He also serves notice that the TGWU is to intensify its recruitment of workers in the professional road haulage sector, the former A and B-licence holders. Mr Jackson says the Wages Council "only serves the interests of mean-minded, penny-pinching haulage bosses. Let's bury it and bury it deep. Because the quicker this body is interred, the faster will be our progress towards a real, progressive wages and conditions structure for this haulage industry."
