N.S.W. RAILWAYS
ARBITRATION AWARDS COMMISSIONER’S COMMENT MELBOURNE, Nov. 14. Mr Clapp (Railway Commissioner) stated at Stawell that the Ministerial announcement that the Commissioners had decided to accede to the Government’s request to withdraw from the High Court, proceedings on the question of the Arbitration Court’s power to bind the railways was evidently based on some misunderstanding in the absence of any binding Ministerial direction which they were legally advised could not be given. The Commissioners resolved to go ahead and secure from the High Court the much-needed authoritative finding as to the constitutional position.
