In any event, the second part of my point is that if we had not had the Crisis of Confidence Which was induced by the party opposite it would not have been necessary to go in for these measures.

Within a month of taking office the Prime Minister referred in this House to a new Crisis of Confidence Which had aggravated our economic position and caused the Government to raise the Bank Rate in order to protect sterling.

I congratulate him on ignoring the very strong and substantial pleas that were made about the fuel oil tax, and I want to draw his attention to the Crisis of Confidence Which has arisen in the mining industry today.

I suppose that by his standards it ranks as an encouragement to investment, but the Prime Minister is not yet aware of the Crisis of Confidence Which exists in industry.

What emerges from Part IV of the Report is a picture of what one might almost describe as a Crisis of Confidence Which existed over the control of animal experiments at that time.

There is a Crisis of Confidence Which has resulted from the policy of the Government towards investment and from the well-known intentions they have had to sell off wherever they can.

There is a Crisis of Confidence Which needs to be overcome.

But in the limited time at my disposal I want particularly to focus attention on the grave Crisis of Confidence Which now exists among thousands of decent, industrially-reasonable members of the staff of the Post Office Corporation as a consequence of the decision of the Pay Board on anomalies.
