“1 don’t like vague terms, especially in these days when the Labour Department has si) many greenhorn inspectors on the road.” said the secretary of the Canterbury Employers’ Association, -Mr. D. 1. Macdonald, during conciliation proceedings before the commissioner, Mr. S. Ritchie, at Christchurch. “Recently 1 have had to do with two Labour Department inspectors who have interpreted awards absolutely wrongly, so that 1 have had to have the matter righted by the officer in charge of the department in Christchurch. It was different with the old inspectors; they knew their work.”
