ARBITRATION ACT MAGISTRATE'S POWERS (Per Press Association.! WELLINGTON, this day. Minor amendments affecting industrial legislation arc contained in. the Industrial Conciliation and Arbitration Amendment (No. 2) Bill, which was introduced by the GovernorGeneral’s message in the House of Representatives last night. The bill was read the second time pro forma and referred to the Labour Bills Committee. Unless the parties agree on some other centre, all Dominion disputes affecting two or more industrial districts are to be heard in Wellington.
Where a dispute is completely settled in the Conciliation Council, the terms of the settlement are to be forwarded directly to the Arbitration Court and the court may make an award embodying tljese terms without the formal hearing of the dispute.
The bill makes it clear that the Industrial Magistrate may exercise the powers of the Arbitration Court under the Factories Act and Shops and Offices Act.
“This bill clears up two or three slight anomalies in the present Act on. which representations were made to me by the Employers’ Federation and the Federation of Labour, said the Minister of Labour, the Hon. P. C. Webb, when the bill was introduced.
