SECOND ARBITRATION COURT MAY BE MORE PERMANENT WELLINGTON, This Day. A statement that the Second Court of Arbitration was likely to become a permanent tribunal was made yesterday by the Minister of Labour, the Hon H. T. Armstrong. The Court was established by legislation passed last November, its tenure being for a specified period of 12 months with provision for an extension.
Mr Armstrong said that the two Arbitration Courts, which were now sitting in Wellington, had made good progressin cleaning up the arrears of work, though it would be some little time before this task was completed. “After this,” said the Minister, “it may be considered wise for one court to deal with compensation cases alone, and have its services available for other work, leaving the first court free to handle arbitration matters only. What other work may be given to the second court will be a question for the Government to determine. I think there is likely to be plenty of work for it to do.”
