Soldiers’ Rehabilitation Legislation
Received Wednesday, 10.60 p.m. SYDNEY, Feb. 21. Any person who considers that an employer has contravened the preference clause In the Soldiers’ Reestablishment and Employment Bill may apply to a magistrate to order the employer to give him the disputed job. This clause, says the Sydney Sun’s Canberra correspondent, is contained in a confidential memorandum containing full details of the Government’s reestablishment proposals and distributed secretly by the Government to tho Labour caucus. Ministers, says the Sun, have already admitted that the term “after the cessation of hostilities” is almost indefinable and will probably require a legal decision to fix it.
By special arrangement Reuter’s world service, in addition to other special compilation of overseas intelligence published in tills issue, and all rights therein in Australia and New Zealand are reserved.
