CBI can do, either together or separately, with our opposite numbers in the United States and in Europe, to avert the possibility of the United States leaving the IIO. I will now ask Mr Forward to initiate our discussion.
Item 6: The British Aid Frogramme in the Labour/Employment Field
15. A paper has been circulated on this item on what is being done by way of UK training courses for labour department and trade union officials from other countries and the recruitment of UK specialists in labour matters for overseas assignments. We are nearing the end of a busy morning's work and detailed discussion of this paper is probably not necessary. But if there are any questions which members would like to raise, we have an ODM official here to answer them.
Item 7 : Any other business
16.
Have members any points they wish to raise or to note for possible inclusion on the agenda for the next meeting?
Item 8: Date of next meeting
17. Subject to any advice which members might have, I suggest we follow the usual practice of permitting the Overseas Labour Adviser discretion to consult members in the light of developments and matters of interest.
[ The conclusion of Professor Turner's study on
Hong Kong may determine the timing of the next meeting ]
