THE ARBITRATION COURT.
THE MAKING OF AWARDS. NEW SYSTEM ADOPTED. By Telegraph --Press Association. Auckland, Last Night. At the Arbitration Court Mr. Justice Frazer intimated that after the present sitting of the Court he thought it would be desirable to revert to the Arbitration Act in regard to the rule that a settlement made at the Conciliation Council should lie for 30 .days before an award was made. The regulation provides an opportunity for parties other than those immediately concerned in any settlement to object to its terms. His Honor said that in the past the Court had not adhered strictly to the rule, but eome one might at any time raise an objection, and therefore the Act on that point would be followed in future, especially in view of the fact that the Court was making more frequent visits to various centres.
Chinamen employed in various market gardens were referred to incidentally during the hearing an application to have an employer’s name struck out from the gardeners award. Mr. O’Neill, the union representative, declared that all “gardeners, even Chinamen, in this district” were going to be cited as parties to be added to the award. His Honor: I wish you joy. (Laughter.)
