Mr Speaker
One wonders whether there is any limit to the talents of the Minister.
Mr Jim Cunningham (Coventry South) (Lab)
What is the Minister doing to encourage negotiations between the DVSA and staff in relation to their dispute? There was a high turnout in the vote for industrial action. Will the Minister either refer the matter to ACAS or push the powers that be into negotiations?
Andrew Jones
I am acutely aware of the limits of my talents, Mr Speaker.
In answer to the hon. Gentleman, the Government are keen to see a settlement to that dispute, and I know that my colleague in the other House, Lord Ahmad, is currently working on that.
