Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

FROM OUR INDUSTRIAL CORRESPONDENT

A42-hour week and 3 per cent, pay increase for B.R.S. workers will be discussed at a meeting next week between the unions and the board of management. This. if awarded, would bring B.R.S. into line with workers in Aand B-licensed haulage concerns, whose award was reported last week.

It is not expected that B.R.S. will refuse the demands. They have always, in the past, followed R.H. Wages Council awards, and it appears that the Government feels it cannot afford possible disruption of B.R.S. by enforcing its wages pause there, in view of its decision on haulage pay.
