WATERSIDE WORK
CO-OPERATIVE COMPANY
The co-operative company planned by the New Zealand Waterside Workers' Union to take over the loading and unloading of ships in the major New Zealand ports on an all-in contract basis was a subject of discussion of the conference of delegates of the union which is sitting in Wellington. The scheme has long been favoured by the union, which claims that it will lead to greater efficiency on the waterfront, promote a quicker turnround of ships, eliminate delays over disputes, and prove more satisfactory to all parties concerned. Representative watersiders state that in the accounts of the Waterfront Control Commission there are funds standing to the credit of the waterfront industry, from which they believe they will be entitled to draw when" they purchase gear for the co-operative company.
