INDUSTRIAL COUNCIL
Proposal Discussed By
Conference
CONSTITUTION TO BE DRAWN UP
The first meeting of representatives of the Wellington Employers’ Association, the Wellington Manufacturers’ Association, and the Wellington Tra'des and Labour Council to discuss the formation of an industrial council as suggested by the Minister of Labour, Mr. W’ebb, was held yesterday and was well attended.
Mr. I’. H. Kinsman, of the Department of Labour, was elected chairman pro. tern. After discussion the meeting decided that a constitution should be drawn up by the national bodies representing the employers and the workers—the New Zealand Employers’ Federation, the New Zealand Manufacturers’ Federation, and the New Zealand Federation of Labour—which would confer the necessary powers on provincial councils and enable the proposal to take proper shape.
