STONE CRUSHER NOT A “FACTORY”
S.M.’S DECISION UPHELD Press Association. PALMERSTON NORTH, Monday. In the course of a reserved judgment delivered this morning in a case in which the inspector of factories appealed against a magistrate’s decision in not convicting the Oroua County Council for failing to register a portable stone crusher as a factory under the Act, Mr. Justice Ostler said: ‘ln my opinion the word ‘place’ as used in the definition of a factory in Section 11. implies the idea of permanency. A perusal of the context of the Act convinces me that 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 a stone crusher, which moved around the district and which is not intended to operate in one place only.” The appeal was dismissed.
