PUBLIC SERVICE SALARIES
AUCKLAND REQUESTS
TO GOVERNMENT (New Zealand Press Association) AUCKLAND. October 7. An immediate approach to the Government on the refusal of the Government Service Tribunal to grant public servants a salary increase of £lOO a year was urged by the committee of the Auckland section of the Public Service Association last night. Included in a series of proposals approved by the committee was a request that the tribunal and Court of Arbitration be freed from prohibitive clauses of the Economic Stabilisation Regulations. “Members of the committee are dissatisfied with the way things are going,” said the chairman of the section (Mr R. W. Hubbard) today. "We are not calling a mass meeting of Auckland’s 4000 public servants in the meantime. We hope to get satisfaction without that.”
Mr Hubbard explained that consideration would be given to the Australian system of automatic wage fixation. _________
