THE GUAEDIAN Tuesday December 9 1980 24 Ford refuses further talks on pay Financial failure may shut historic sites Euro Ferries chief could hold most of cross-Channel trade Tory MP bids for British Rail Sealink ferries crease the pay offer or reduce hours, which the unions say is a vital part of their claim. Some union negotiators are still confident, that the company can at least be persuaded to follow the engineering industry, which is to introduce a 39-hour working week from November next year under an agreement reached last year. They accept that in return the unions will have to promise cooperation in overcoming Ford's low productivity and poor efficiency, particularly by reducing unofficial stoppages. Ford's employee relations director, Mr Paul Roots, made it clear in the negotiations that only concrete progress on these appear to have collapsed under the weight of a terrible trading performance in 1980, when ferry operators were badly affected by the price-cutting war and the impact of the French fishermen's dispute. Despite attracting more customers because of the price cuts, many ferries are still sailing half full.

Mr Wickenden said yesterday that there was ample scope for rationalisation. While lie did not anticipate any redundancies at Sealink if Euro Ferries' bid succeeds, Mr Wickenden did rule out any possibility of his company continuing with index-linked pensions for BR employees. No privately-owned company can afford to index-link pensions," he said. In my view 1 hough I have no inside knowledge on this subject index-linked pensions are not going to be with us for much longer." He also ruled out much hope of Euro Ferries continuing to operate Seal ink's loss-making social service routes. Mr Wickenden cited the example of the Highlands and Islands routes in the north of Scotland as typical of those at risk.

Mr Wickenden said that many of Sealink's 50 ships were now nearing the end of their life and would require a 200 million modernisation programme. British Rail could not afford this, he said. Mr Wickenden, who recently surprised the City by taking over the merchant bank, Singer and Friedlander, hopes to escape reference to the Monopolies Commission, partly because Sealink's 1980 losses will make it difficult to float the company in the near future. In addition to Monopolies Commission approval, Euro Ferries will need the support of the French, Dutch and Bel-, gian railway undertakings who operate a marketing agreement with British Rail under the Sealink banner. vinced that the workforce has any heart for a dispute over hours.

A meeting of the union side of the national joint negotiating committee yesterday did not discuss the proposal to give a month's notice of strike action which the Amalgamated Union of Engineering Workers had said it would put before the committee. Mr Ron Todd, chairman of the committee and national organiser of the Transport and General Workers' Union, said: "We have not reached the stage where we should consider what action to take. All sorts of things will be considered when we next meet." protest which was escalated once the fast started 42 days ago. A decision by six members of the Protestant paramilitary group, the Ulster Defence Association, to start a hunger strike at the Maze' Prison block next Friday has upset some UDA leaders. They are trying to arrange a meeting with the prisoners to discuss the issue.

Mr Andy Tyrie, UDA commander-in-chief, who has talked to one of the prisoners, said last night he was convinced they, were determined to carry out the threat. Manv Loyalist leaders said yesterday that a UDA hunger strike would give the Government an excuse to make concessions to Republicans on hunger strike in the H-blocks. By John Ardill, Labour Staff The Ford Motor Company yesterday refused to reopen negotiations with unions representing its 57,000 manual workers who, have rejected a 9.5 per cent pay offer, but agreed to informal talks this week with leading union officials. Unless some new opening is found, the unions will meet again on Thursday week to consider industrial action, perhaps selective strikes at key component works in the new year. On present indications the firm is prepared to ride out industrial action rather than in Thatcher, Haughey cement the ties Continued from page 1 proposals to be considered as a result of the summit is a plan to offer the UK reciprocal citizenship rights in the Republic to those enjoyed by Irish citizens in Britain.

Although this is clearly only in very early stages of discussion, Mrs Thatcher said that Mr Haughey had indicated that he was prepared to consider reciprocal voting rights for UK citizens. This is to be examined, however, in the context of existing nationality legislation and the British Government's plans to bring forward new proposals in the present parliamentary session. Other areas in which the studies are to be made are such fields as cooperation over use of energy resources possibly across the Irish border and establishment of industrial enterprise zones. The studies will be commissioned by ministers in individual department's and will mostly be concerned with economic cooperation. It is felt that there is room for a good deal more continuity on practical measures of cooperation and that this will be assisted by the involvement of ministers.

Turning to discussion of international issues and the EEC, Mrs Thatcher said that there had been some disagreement about the common agricultural policy. But there had been very strong agreement on condemnation of violence and the need for maximum security cooperation. There is no doubt that Mr Haughey, at least, sees the examination of institutions as a major step forward in his political plans. At his news conference the Irish premier declined to give further information on the studies, results of which will be considered at another Anglo-Irish summit next year. But he said that he did not set any limits on the institutions to be studied.

Nor did he rule out the possibility of an Anglo-Irish friendship treaty emerging from the process. In Dublin's view the meeting was a considerable success. The outcome is in line with Mr Haughey's declared policy that progress towards a political settlement in Northern Ireland can only be achieved in the wider context of Anglo-Irish affairs. Mr Haughey and Mrs Tomorrow, Mr Todd, the committee's vice-chairman, Mr Douglas Cornwell and the secretary, Mr Jack Whyman, will meet Mr Roots to challenge the company's refusal to meet the full negotiating body. Mr Todd said: "It is not the company's joint committee but theirs and the unions'.

We challenge their right to reject unilaterally another meeting of the committee." A Ford spokesman said: "To call a meeting of the committee would only encourage people to believe there was the prospect of an improvement in the offer being made. Since that is not so, it could lead to disapi: and frustration." Paisley threat to wreck initiatives From Bob Rodwell in Belfast THE Democratic Unionist leader, the Reverend Ian Paisley, last night threatened to lead people on to the streets to destroy any initiatives resulting from the Dublin summit talks. Should Mrs Thatcher dare to try and establish institutional structures between Dublin and London affecting Northern Ireland, or procedures to give the Republic a say in drawing up Ulster policy I will lead the Ulster Protestant people in whatever actions arc necessary to thwart and destroy that machinery," he said. Loyalists were in no mood to tolerate any more lying and perfidy by English politicians, Mr Paisley said. Mrs Thatcher had better weigh up what the consequences in Northern Ireland would be from any U-turn on the IRA hunger strike.

"What she has seen before will only be like a Sunday School picnic to what she will see in coining days." He intended to seek an urgent meeting with Mrs Thatcher, at which he would lay the issues down to her. like my peonle, am in no mood to be trifled with. We will not see our heritage destroyed." The Social Democratic and Labour Party leader, Mr John Hume, described yesterday's summit decision to set up joint studies as a significant advance. Any political solution to the Ulster problem- would depend upon close relations between Britain and Ireland, and Mr Haughey had done "a good day's work." But Mr Jeremy Burchill for the Official Unionists, said that Ulster loyalists would be "appalled at (he weak-kneed attitude Mrs Thatcher and her ministers have displayed in Dublin." The Alliance Party's spokesman on security, Mr John Cousins, said that closer links between Britain and Ireland would be in the Interests of both- The party would not oppose any solution to the II Block crisis based on prison reform applicable to all prisoners, but no such reforms should should come about simply as a result of pressure from hunger strikers," he added.

By Michael Smith, Industry Correspondent The Tory MP, Mr Keith Wickenden, an ardent supporter of the Government's free market philosophy, has launched a determined bid to capture the largest share of the cross-Channel ferry trade. Mr Wickenden's company, European Ferries, wants to buy its major competitor, Sea-link, from British Rail. Together the Euro Ferries offshoot of ownsend Thoresen and Sealink control about SO psr cent of the traffic to France, Holland and Belgium. Mr Wickenden, the MP for Dorking, has outlined his ambitious plans to the British Rail chairman, Sir Peter Parker. Euro Ferries has set its sights on buying a controlling stake in Sealink, but Mr Wickenden made it clear yesterday that he wants full control.

Details of the. deal will not emerge until the middle of next year, when the Transport Bill goes through Parliament. Other bidders, including Channel ferry rivals may emerge before then. British Rail is being forced to sell Sealink and its hotel interests under the Government's directive c.i denationalisation. But original plans to float off Sealink on the Stock Exchange Keith Wickenden bid for expansion Pressure Continued from page 1 Tass report as "a complete lie and falsification, aimed at misleading Polish and world opinion."

The unions have maintained that they are willing to discuss these matters if the company will make firm offers on hours and other improvements sought in the claim. The company regards this condition as unacceptable and says that any promises made so far by the unions about disciplining their members are meaninglessly vague. With the prospect of little or no profit this year, and a declining car market worldwide, Ford clearly believes it must make a stand now, even if that means i rolonged industrial action. But it is fat from con The other Maze prison committees of officials give considerable scope. Mr Haughey also indicated that Dublin has completed legal examination into giving British citizens the right to vote in the Republic's elections: But any further moves may have to wait until a new citizenship act is introduced in Britain.

Republicans in Belfast last night named the man they said the Government must talk to if they wanted to negotiate an end to the II-Block hunger strike. He is Bobby Sands, a 27-year-old prisoner from the Twinbrook area near Belfast, who is serving 15 years for arms offences. According to Provisional Sinn Fein, he is the chief representative of the Republican prisoners in the Maze, who are involved in the so-called "dirty Ireland, a -post which Mr Foot had himself sought during the last Labour Government. Mr Rodgers rejected this offer as well, although he appears to have recognised that it was an important appointment which could not be categorised as less than a full job. Mr Foot has now split the two posts relating to the Department of Health and Social Security, and filled' them from outside the Shadow Cabinet.

Mr Norman Buchan, a former Junior Minister for agriculture, takes over social security with a special responsibility for the benefit. Responsibility for the health service goes to Mrs Gwyneth Dunwoody, also a former Junior Minister. Responsibility for Northern Ireland has been allocated to Mr Don Concannon, who served throughout the life of the last Labour Government as a Minister in the Northern Ireland Office. Mr Rodgers said last night that the jobs which had been offered to him had all been accepted by people who were not members of the Shadow Cabinet. "Is it reasonable to be asked to do half a job? he said.

Asked whether he had been sacked or had simply refused to serve, Mr Rodgers was at first adamant that he had been sacked. He added later: "Defence has been taken away from me against my will. Whether you call that being sacked or not is a question of linguistics." Mr Rodger's personal difficulties effectively diverted attention from some of Mr Foot's other appointments. They include a major new responsibility for Mr Gerald Kaufman, whose dramatic success in the Shadow Cabinet elections gave him a special claim to preferment. He now takes over the comprehensive task of Shadow Environment By David Henckc, Planning Correspondent SOME ancient monuments may have to close to the public after an internal investigation by the Environment Department which has revealed "a lack of financial probity and considerable deficiencies of management." Mr Michael Heseltine, the Environment Secretary, is looking at a number of economies, including transferring some property to the National Trust, selling off items from museums, reexamining the role of the police in Royal Parks and bringing in contract labour to run monuments and royal parks.

The investigation report is secret, but details of the scale of the problem have been disclosed by Mr Heseltine in documents examining management efficiency. These show that Mr Michael Mendoza, head of the directorate of ancient monuments and historic buildings, is extremely concerned about the running of his department. It is responsible for the management of 400 monuments from the Tower of London to Bolsover Castle, the maintenance of Royal Parks like St James's Park, looking after the Palace of Westminster, and the protection of 12,000 monuments and 270,000 listed buildings. Mr Mendoza writes: "In many areas staff are overstretched and work is falling behind. The directorate has a history of lack of financial probity and considerable deficiencies of management over many years.

There is no doubt that the accounting officer cannot be properly safeguarded in a number of areas of the directorate with present a ffi levels." About 26 posts need to be filled urgently The report says that inspections can take place on only six out of every 100 grants for historic buildings, and suggests that "more site visits are desirable to ensure public money is properly spent." It is also calling for a check of items at the Tower of London armouries. Mr Mendoza says that if financial probity is to be restored drastic measures which could bring "substantial public and political protest are needed. These include closing some monuments to the public, making substantial reductions in historic building repair grants, deferring conservation work on buildings under the guardianship of the department, and deferring the future listing of buildings. The department was unable to answer questions on the report yesterday, and could not give any details of the irregularities discovered by the internal inquiry. Mr Frank Dobson, MP for Holborn and St Pancras, spotted the disclosure in the documents and is planning to table a series of questions, demanding a statement from Mr Heseltine.

Rodgers Continued from page 1 retaryship and Mr Peter Shore will become the Shadow Chancellor with a clear brief to break with the last vestiges of monetarism and go for an all-out policy of economic expansion. But the unexpected name at the top of Mr Foot's list is that of Mr Roy Hatters-ley, who headed the poll in the Shadow Cabinet elections. He now becomes Shadow Home Secretary, with a special brief to fight the Government's new legislation on British nationality, including its implications for racial policy and immigration. Most Labour backbenchers were concentrating their attention last night on the position of Mr Rodgers and the choice of a successor to his former post of Shadow Defence Secretary. Surprisingly Mr Foot hap chosen to offer the job to Mr Brynmor John, who is not one of the 12 elected members of the Shadow Cabinet.

Although Mr John, formerly in charge of Northern Ireland affairs, has experience as a junior Defence Minister in the last Labour Government it is clear that Mr Foot intends to take a major share in the formation of defence policy. Mr Rodgers clearly did not expect to retain charge of defence policy, since his attitude to nuclear disarmament differs radicallyfrom thatof Mr Foot.

On the other hand, it has now become known that Romania's leader, President Ceausescu, pleaded against intervention in Poland, but left the summit before it ended. It is not yet clear whether the remaining six members of the Warsaw Pact went on to discuss how the Pact, even without Romania's agreement, should act if the Polish leadership failed to restore its full authority.

There has been no official reaction here 10 the statement from the White House that the Soviet Union was ready to launch an invasion of Poland. But at the Helsinki review conference in Madrid, the Deputy Polish Foreign Minister, Mr Maryan Dobrosielski, said that unfounded talk about an invasion tended only to create an atmosphere of tension which makes it harder to solve Poland's problems."

But Mr Haughey gave no information about the discussions between them, which he described as confidential.

Dublin's approach to the Northern Ireland problem has been based in recent months on a gradual development of Anglo-Irish relations, building on the unique relationship between the two countries underlined at the two leaders' last meeting in May. Rather than seeking the traditional demand by the Republic that Britain declares support for a united Ireland, Mr Haughey has been pursuing closer political and economic ties to provide a broader framework for resolving the problem.
