NEW PROPOSALS
ON TRADE UNION. BILL. PRAISE FROM LLOYD GEORGE. Press Association—Copyright, Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn. (Received 12.10 p.m.) LONDON, June 14. In the House of Commons, Sir L. Scott, in committee on the Trade Union Bill, proposed a new clause making illegal any strike or lockout in an essential industry, prior to, or during reference of a dispute to the Conciliation Tribunal. This he said wa s an attempt at something constructive in the direction of the settlement, ol disputes.
Mr dynes said if the Gov..-went wanted industrial harmony it would have to proceed on the line’s of the new clause, instead of introducing a Bill which had gone far to crash any spirit of conciliation. Mr Lloyd George agreed that it was unfortunate to link safe conciliation proposals with such a provocr/Jve Bill. If the Government introduced a Bill along lines of Sir L. Scott’s proposal it would be worth tons of Trade Union Bills.
