WHAT IS A FACTORY?
INSPECTOR’S APPEAL DISMISSED.
Palmerston N., Yesterday
The (reserved judgment of Mr Justice Ostler was delivered this morning in the ease wherein the Inspector of Factories appealed against the Magistrate’s decision in not convicting the Oroua County Council for failing to register a portable stone crusher as a factory under the Act. “In my opinion the word place as used in the definition of a factory in Section 2 implies an idea of permanence, and a perusal of the context of the Act convinces me it was not intended by the legislature to apply that word to each place on which is used a portable piece of machinery, such as a threshing mill or stone crusher, which is moved round the district, and which is not intended to be operated in one place only,” said the Judge. The appeal was dismissed.
