ADDINGTON WORKSHOPS
PUBLICS INQUIRY TO BE HELD
[Press Association."! WELLINGTON, Jan. 26. The “New Zealand . Times” understands that the Government intends shortly to arrange for a public inquiry into the system of management in vogue at Addington workshops, and the cost of the work done there. The constitution of the tribunal! has not yet been settled, and may be decided this week, Meanwhile the Addington officials to whom were referred the expert’s allegations in regard to lack of discipline and loafing are framing their answer, which has not yet come to hand. One of tho features of the inquiry will probably he an. attempt to discover the person who divulged to the newspapers the general manager’s strongly-worded letter of complaint. This is regarded as a serious breach of discipline, as the Department’s regulations strictly forbid railway servants giving information to the public or showing an official document to ail unauthorised person unless instructed to do so in tho course of their duty.
