COOKS’ AND STEWARDS’ AWARD
NO JURISDICTION TO AMEND. The Arbitration Court gave judgment yesterday in respect of an application by the Union Steam Ship Company for amendment of clause 23 (a) of the New Zealand marine cooks and stewards’ (stewards’) award "The Court’s intention," said Mr. Justice Frazer in "delivering judgment, “was to make similar provisions for weekly time off in the seamen’s, stewards' and galley staffs’ awards. This it has done. The Court has not inadvertently inserted anything it did not intend to insert, nor has it inadvertently omitted anything that it did not intend to omit. It has therefore no jurisdiction to amend the award in the direction suggested. The matter of amending the clause in question must accordingly stand over until a new award is being made, unless the parties make a joint application for amendment of the existing award. . , . '
