ENTRY BY CONSENT ONLY.
It is only with the consent of the other party that a clause empowering the secretary of.a trades union to visit Avorkcrs at their place of employment may be incorporated in and award. This was made clear in (he Arbitration Court at Auckland when Mr. J. Purtell, secret ray of the Sugar Workers’ Union, expressed disappointment that representatives of the Coloiiial Sugar Refining Company Avould not, consent to the inclusion in the award of a clause empowering him to Visit the Chelsea works when he found it necessary. “I am secretary of several other unions, from labourers to clerks, and I am nevei obstructed/’ said Mr. Purtell. “I frankly admit that I do not knoAv what the attitude of the Court is on the question.” Mr. W. Scott (employers’ represenativc on the Court) asked Mr. Purtell whether lie did not realise that it Avas a question of law and that the Court had not poAver to give him an order to go on private property. Mr. Justice Frazer: “The Court does not include such a clause except by consent. I know there are several UAvards with that provision, but it is always included by consent. We could not make an order otberAvise.”
