DRIVERS PROPOSE HOLDING FURTHER
STOP-WORK MEETINGS (P.A.) WELLINGTON, Feb; 27-. Further stop-work meetings of drivers operating under the New Zealand Motor and Horse Drivers award are proposed by the national council of the New Zealand Drivers’ Federation. Conciliation Council in the drivers dispute sat on Friday and Saturday, and after making some progress adjourned until a date yet to be fixed. A special meeting of the council of the Drivers’ Federation was held after the adjournment. The secretary (Mr A. C. Melville) later announced that the council had decided to recommend to all affiliations that stopwork meetings be called in order to place information on the present deadlock fairly before members for decision.
The chief point of difference between the employers’ and the workers’. representatives in conciliation is still the conditions to apply to rural drivers working under part 2 of the award. _____
