A conference held between the Shipping Tribunal, the Federated Society of Boilermakers and the management of Cockatoo Island discussed the dismissal of the boilermakers who refused to work riveting machines, and asked the tribunal to give a decision as to whether the management had violated the shipbuilding agreement between the Federal Government and the boilermakers by dismissing a number of men from new work owing to a difference over repair, work and the use of pneumatic tools.
