Compulsory conference
132 Compulsory conference
For the purpose of resolving an industrial dispute, the Commission may convene a compulsory conference and require the attendance of any person whose presence the Commission considers would help in the resolution of the dispute.
A compulsory conference is to be presided over by a member of the Commission.
The Commission may confer with any person on any matter that may affect the resolution of an industrial dispute, without requiring the person to attend a compulsory conference.
Note.
Section 165 provides that the Industrial Registrar may issue a summons for the purpose of any compulsory conference. Section 380 enables the Commission in the course of a compulsory conference to make an order for a small claim under Part 2 of Chapter 7 (Recovery of remuneration and other amounts) arising out of the industrial dispute.
