"Of course what worries me most is the question of redundancies and displacement of my members. The report is very clear on the other things it wants to do, but it is not clear on the other things it wants to do, but it its is not very clear in connection with the numbers of railway men who are going to be displaced or dismissed, and my members will be looking to my union to safeguard their position. It's not our job, as a union, to get people out of work. It's our job safeguard the position and keep them in work". (What is the next step - what is your union going to do about the report?) "My executive committee will give detailed examination to this report. I don't suppose they will take such drastic actions as the report is taking without very serious considerations".
