1. INTRODUCTION The Waterfront Control Commission was appointed in April, 1940, and an annual report was submitted to Parliament covering the activities of the Commission up to 31st March, 1941. The Director of Publicity at the request of the Navy Office, which considered the information might be of some use to the enemy, has each year since 1941 prohibited the publication of an annual report. With the cessation of hostilities the Navy Office withdrew its objection, and the Commission is glad to be able to submit a report covering its activities up to 31st March, 1945. Comprehensive tables covering the five years of the Commission's operations are included in the Appendix attached hereto showing full details of tonnages handled, rates of work, profit distribution and costs per ton under the co-operative contracting system, average wage at the main and secondary ports, wages paid by each shipping company or agent, and summarized accounts of the various funds controlled by the Commission, these accounts having been audited by the Controller and AuditorGeneral. 2. FUNCTIONS OF THE COMMISSION The functions of the Commission as prescribed under the Waterfront Control Commission Emergency Regulations 1940 are to do all things necessary for the purpose of ensuring the utmost expedition in the loading, unloading, and storage of cargo at any port, and the results show that in expediting the despatch of shipping the Commission has fully justified its existence. A table is published in the Appendix (page 74) showing the reduction effected in the time spent in New Zealand by overseas vessels, and from that table it will be seen that overseas ships during the war years have been turned round in approximately half the time taken prior to the war. This quick turn round of overseas vessels is due to the reduction in ports of call, working " round the clock " Sundays and holidays, and the increased rate of work under the co-operative contracting system. 3. MEASURES TAKEN TO EXPEDITE DESPATCH OF SHIPPING (a) CENTRALIZATION OF SHIPPING Following representations from the British Ministry of War Transport, the Overseas Allotment Committee arranged for a reduction in the ports of discharge and loading and the centralization oi cargo-handling operations at the main ports. Overseas cargo is discharged at one or two ports and transhipped by coastal vessels. Two small vessels with freezer holds were made available by the British Ministry of War Transport for the shipping of freezer cargo from small and secondary ports to the main ports for loading to overseas vessels. A perusal of table in the Appendix on page 74 will show that prior to the war, vessels visited an average of 6-13 ports for discharge and loading. For the year ending 13st March, 1942, this average was reduced to 2-8 ports, for the year ending 31st March, 1943, the average was further reduced to 2-4 ports while for the year ending 31st march, 1944, a further small reduction in the average was made to 2-16 ports. The year ending 31st March, 1945, shows an increase in the average to 2| ports. Centralization of shipping has been one of the main factors in speeding up the turn round of overseas vessels. So far as British ships are concerned, the additional costs brought about through centralization are met by the British Ministry of War Transport. (b) WORKING " ROUND THE CLOCK" AND SUNDAYS AND HOLIDAYS Shortly after the appointment of the Commission, arrangements were made for work to be performed on Saturday night between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. and between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. on Sundays and holidays. In view of the critical shipping position at that time, a conference of all interested parties was called by the Commission in March, 1941, and an agreement was entered into whereby all overseas vessels would work round the clock under a shift system, and vessels of the Union Steam Ship Co. of N.Z., Ltd., would also work under that system provided there was more than 48 hours' continuous work. The hours of work were fixed as follows : — Day shift .. .. • • • • . . 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Night shift .. .. ■ • • ■ ■ • 11 P-m. to 7 a.m. The breaks between the shifts were required for shunting purposes. These 'extended hours and shift system increased the working-hours per week from 68 to 140 and was the principal single factor in expediting despatch of shipping. The system was put into operation with very little difficulty. In June, 1942, it was found that the coastal-ship tonnage available was insufficient to move overseas transhipments and coastal cargoes, and the Commission issued an order requiring all coastal vessels over 350 tons net register to be worked continuously round the clock. The need for this was brought about through the centralization of discharge of overseas cargoes ahd also the fact that large quantities of coal and timber required to be shipped from the South Island to the North Island. _ _ ...... In view of the continuous long hours being worked at main ports, and having in mind the improvement in the war situation, the Commission as from 3rd January, 1944, reduced the day-shift hours to 9 p.m. Mondays to Fridays inclusive and 5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The shift-work agreement reached between the parties in March, 1941, provided that shipping companies would supply a hot meal free of cost to men employed on night-shift work. Considerable difficulty was experienced in providing suitable meals at Auckland and Wellington, and shipping companies who made their own arrangements with the catering companies were called upon to pay excessive charges, sometimes as high as 6s. and 7s. per meal, and complaints were also received regarding the quality of the meal supplied. The Commission accordingly made arrangements with one catering company whereby a substantial meal was provided between the hours of 2 a.m. and 4 a.m. at the ports of Auckland and Wellington at a cost of 3s. 6d. per meal. Despite rationing difficulties and wide variations in the number of men to be catered for each night —from 100 or less to more than 1,200— excellent meals and service have been given. As these meals have been provided at short notice from temporary kitchens with limited facilities and without complaints from the men, it will be appreciated that the service has been very efficient. There exists a real need at main ports for a permanent well-equipped restaurant within the confines of the wharf where good meals can be supplied both during day and night hours. A return is published in the Appendix (page 75) showing the number of vessels (other than United States Army and Navy) which worked under the shift system and extended hours for year ending; 31st March, 1945,

(c) CO-OPERATIVE CONTRACTING Reference is made in the Commission's previous report for the period ended 31st March, 1941, to the introduction of the co-operative contracting system. This system of " payment by results " was not at that time operative at all ports, and was mainly restricted to overseas vessels. During the intervening period the system has been gradually extended to all ports and all classes of vessels, while to-day, apart from American vessels at the port of Auckland, over 90 per cent, of the cargo handled on the waterfronts of New Zealand is worked under contract. Prior to the appointment of the Commission all work was performed on an hourly-wage basis, and the slower the rate of work, the greater the return to the waterside workers employed. The co-operative contracting system provides an incentive for increased work without loss to the workers employed, as they receive the actual amount earned on a tonnage or unit basis, and the quicker the vessel is loaded or discharged the greater the return to the men at an hourly rate and the sooner they become available for other work. From tables attached to this report it will be seen that up to 31st March, 194-5, the Commission has handled 14,211 contracts, valued at £7,152,050, and totalling over 18,000,000 tons of cargo. (i) Rates of Work Comprehensive tables appear in the Appendix showing the rates of work at each port for the main classes of cargo and for each type of vessel. Figures are shown separately for each year ending 31st March, 1940, to 31st March, 1945. The rates of work have, on the whole, been very satisfactory, the figures for the period ended 31st March, 1941, showing a considerable increase over those obtained on a wage basis. There was a slight falling off in the rate of work per gang for the following year, which can be accounted for through the working of shift-work. The figures for the years ended 31st March, 1943 and 1944, show, on the whole, progressive increases. There was a slight reduction in the figures for the year ended 31st March, 1945, which the Commission attributes to the long hours worked at the main ports and the strain of these hours over the war years. The work performed at secondary and all South Island ports was much better than the work at Auckland and Wellington, particularly the former port, where there is ample room for improvement especially in the discharge of overseas vessels and the working of coastal vessels. It should be pointed out, however, that the port of Auckland is handicapped to some extent through the lack of sufficient mechanical gear such as tractors and trailers, and the Commission appreciates the action of the Auckland Harbour Board in purchasing a supply of this equipment, which has proved very efficient. It is understood that additional tractors and trailers are under order. The results of the co-operative contracting system are, as a whole, quite gratifying, particularly in view of the following factors, which have tended to reduce the rate of work : — (a) Shift-tvork. —A slower rate of work is obtained during night hours, due to the necessity of exercising greater care, the changeover of sorters between shifts, and shed congestion brought about through cargo being worked round the clock and deliveries taking place over a much shorter span of hours. (b) Change in Nature of Cargo—Prior to the war the measurement cargo handled was approximately double the weight cargo, while to-day the reverse is the position. On a tonnage basis a much higher rate of work is obtained on measurement cargoes than weight cargoes. The change has been brought about due to imports of large quantities of iron and steel, munitions, and raw materials, and the restrictions on the imports of motor-vehicles, pianos, and other quick-handling measurement cargo. The increase in the rates of work under the co-operative contracting system has been a very valuable contribution to the speedier turn round of shipping. (ii) Costs op Cargo-handling As from Ist April, 1943, a comprehensive costing system was introduced to ascertain the cost of handling all cargo worked under the co-operative contracting system. The following basis has been adopted in arriving at the cost of working the various classes of cargo : —• Small costal and Union Steam Ship Co. —• Timber —■ Softwoods .. .. 500 S/ft. per ton. Hardwoods .. .. 333 S/ft. per ton. Cheese .. .. 12J crates to ton. Butter .. .. .. 35 boxes to ton (gross weight, 64 lb.). Meat .. .. .. Actual weight. Coal .. .. .. Actual weight. General cargo .. .. All classes not enumerated above converted to a common tonnage by taking the gross contract rates for such classes and dividing by the contract rates for general cargo for the particular contract. Overseas —- Meat .. .. .. Actual weight. Butter .. .. .. 35 boxes to ton (gross weight, 64 lb.). Cheese .. .. .. 12J crates to ton. Fruit .. .. 25 cases to ton. Wool .. .. .. 350 lb. per bale (6-4 bales to ton). ■ Tallow, pelts, &c. .. .. Actual weight. Hides .. .. .. 10 sacks to ton. General .. .. .. Weight and/or measurement as per cargo return (heavy lifts—double manifest weight). TimberSoftwoods .. .. 500 S/ft. per ton. Hardwoods .. .. 333 S/ft. per ton. The cost per ton has been calculated under the following headings : — (a) Total cost of all delays, with detailed cost of each delay subdivided as follows :— (1) Hatches (includes rigging gear, transferring decks, and tents). (2) Minimum periods. (3) Rain (includes all weather delays). (4) Shunting. (5) Sundries —all delays not included above. (6) Non-contract —includes work performed on time basis.

(b) Extra labour. (c) Overtime subdivided into—(1) Total wages paid. (2) Hours at basic rate of 2s. lOd. (3) Total overtime. (4) Ordinary overtime. (5) Special overtime. (6) Cost-of-living bonuses. (7) Special rates, &c. (d) Total of extras (delays, extra labour, overtime, cost-of-living bonuses, and special rates). (e) Contract rates subdivided according to winch-time cost and profit. (/) Total contract price. (g) Supervision. (h) National Pay Office levy. (i) Total co-operative stevedoring cost. Detailed costs per ton are available for all main classes of cargo handled for the two years ending 31st March, 1945. Classes of cargo not separately costed are included under " general cargo " on the basis set out in paragraph (1) hereof. Space does not permit publishing full details of costs under each heading, but costs for each year are shown in the Appendix for the following headings— Ordinary overtime. Special overtime. Contract price. National Pay Office levy. Total co-operative stevedoring cost. It has not been possible to obtain detailed costs on the above basis for co-operative stevedoring performed between July, 1940, and March, 1943, but contract accounts have been analysed for each year and costs obtained for all cargo handled under each type of contract without subdividing according to class of cargo or separate delays. In comparing costs of handling each class of cargo for the two years, 1944 and 1945, and in comparing costs between ports, the following factors should be appreciated : — (a) Except for minor adjustments, co-operative contracting stevedoring rates, which are fixed on the winch or working time of normal number of men per gang at the ordinary time rate of pay have not been varied during the two years. (b) A variation in the quantity of each cargo within the one classification will affect the overall average cost, although there may not be any increase in cost for each type of cargo— e.g., dairy-produce includes butter and cheese, and the cost per ton of loading butter is higher than loading cheese. Similarly, with general cargo, the cost per ton of loading wool (based on 6-4 bales per ton) is higher than other general cargo. (c) A change in the nature of cargo handled at the port will vary the cost of handling—e.g., change from measurement cargo to weight, or vice versa. (d) Weather delays and amount of overtime worked are other factors affecting cost. (e) The contract rates and cost vary at each port according to the number of men employed on behalf of the ship, the facilities for cargo handling, and the average rate of work obtained prior to introduction of system —e.g., at Auckland, wharf men are the responsibility of ship discharging cargo, while at Wellington these men are engaged and paid by the Wellington Harbour Board. (iii) Profit Distribution Included in the tables in r ,he Appendix summarizing results of co-operative contract stevedoring will be found full particulars of profit distributed at each port for each class of contract and the average profit per " winch " hour. Although profits are distributed on total paid hours, it will be appreciated that a profit can only be earned during the winch or working time, all delays being recovered on a wage basis. A summary of profits distributed is published in pages 65 and 66 of the Appendix. It will be seen that from the establishment of the system in July, 1940, up to 31st March, 194-5, an amount of £667,272 has been distributed to waterside workers at an average of 8-79 d. per " winch " hour. The average profit per hour for the period July, 1940, to 31st March, 1941, was higher at most ports than the average for the following two years. There was a marked drop for the year ending 31st March, 1942, and a progressive increase from that date, an amount of £172,667 being distributed during the year ending 31st March, 1945, at an average of 9-93 d. per " winch " hour. This is due to the fact that the contracts were first introduced on overseas vessels, which generally return a higher rate of profit per hour than coastal vessels. The increases in rates of work under contracting system are reflected in the progressive increase in profits distributed. Some ports have shown a much better understanding and appreciation of the system than others and the men have accepted the responsibility of the full contract system, the labour being engaged, supervised, and dismissed by the Commission's representatives, who are or have been local officials of the branch. Co-operative contracting, as the name implies, requires the full co-operation of every member of the union, and the Commission trusts that union members at all ports will display that sense of responsibility which will enable advances to be made. Workers must realize that to obtain a share in the management of industry they must first show that they are capable of accepting the responsibility that goes with it. 4. LABOUR FACTORS AFFECTING RATES OF WORK (a) DISPUTES Commission control with the appointment of Waterfront Controllers and Representatives at all main and secondary ports provides a quick and effective means for the settlement of disputes. Local officers of the Commission are called upon daily to determine matters in dispute which cannot be settled between the parties, and there can be no question that the prompt settlement of these differences has prevented stoppages of work and the extension of disputes to other vessels. Matters of principle and affecting other ports are, if no agreement reached, referred from local Disputes Committee to National Disputes Committee and, if necessary, to the Commission for decision. The Commission is concerned about the time taken for these disputes to be referred and also that the National Disputes Committee does not make any real effort to arrive at a decision. Too many disputes are referred to the Commission which should be determined either by the Local or National Disputes Committees.

H.—45

The time lost through disputes during the period of Commission control represents less than onehalf of 1 per cent, of the total time worked and bears more than a favourable comparison with pre-war years and also other parts of the British Empire during the war years. Table showing man-hours lost prior to and during Commission control is published in the Appendix, page 75. It will be seen that for the period of four years prior to Commission control, 233,656 man-hours were lost, as against an estimated total of 29,147,977 man-hours worked, the average for the four years representing a loss of 0-80 per cent. For the five years of Commission control, 212,080 man-hours were lost and the estimated total man-hours worked totalled 51,819,632, the average for the period being a loss of 0-41 per cent. Two disputes which occurred in 1944 resulted in a loss of 150,000 man-hours out of the total of 212,080 man-hours lost during Commission control. The first dispute occurred in connection with the safety of gangway of s.s. Kaikorai at Auckland and resulted in a loss of 96,000 man-hours. The second dispute occurred over men engaged to receive cargo ex vessel Kent into Harbour Board sheds at the Port of Wellington. In view of the machinery provided for the prompt settlement of disputes, there can be no justification for any stoppage of work unless safety to life or limb is involved. The Commission trusts that all members of the union will appreciate the need for referring disputes to their officials before any hasty action is taken, and enable the matter to be dealt with in the constitutional and common-sense way. An analysis is published in the Appendix (page 76) showing the number of disputes referred to the Commission for decision from the National Disputes Committee. (b) SHORTAGE OF MAN-POWER Due to the centralization of shipping, the establishment of a United States base in this country, and the working of vessels round the clock on a shift system, the Commission was faced with some difficulty in obtaining sufficient labour to meet the demand of shipping, particularly at the Ports of Auckland and Wellington. A considerable number of waterside workers also enlisted during the early period of the war, and, having in mind the withdrawal of man-power from other industries and the great need to obtain men for the Forces, the Commission did not consider it could justify appealing for "A" Grade single waterside workers or married men without children. The Commission's policy regarding appeals was also governed by the fact that a large number of applications were received for employment on the waterfront. The main problem in meeting the shortage of labour arose at Auckland, where the amount of work required on behalf of the United States authorities increased to such an extent that it represented one-third of the rest of New Zealand, including civilian vessels at Auckland. The shortage of labour at that port was mainly overcome by the registration of non-union labour through the Man-power authorities and the employment of Civil Servants and other forty-hour-week workers during week-ends and night shifts. The difficulty was further accentuated at that port due to the requirements of labour for stores off the wharf controlled by the United States authorities. It was quite frequent for over 2,000 non-unionists to be employed each day in addition to approximately 1,800 unionists, and a great strain was placed on the Commission's Central Pay Office staff. At other ports the shortage of labour was not so acute and was overcome by the employment of available non-union labour and the transfer of unionists from secondary ports to main ports during rush periods of shipping. This transfer not only relieved the labour shortage at the main ports, but also was of considerable financial assistance to unionists at the secondary ports, whose earnings had been materially affected through the policy of centralization. The Government agreed to meet the cost of transfer, which has been paid from War Expenses Account. Included in the Appendix is a table giving details of transfer of labour between ports (page 88). (c) UNREASONABLE SPELLING ON WATERFRONT Although " spelling " or the taking of rest periods has been a feature of the waterfront industry for many years, there has been some abuse of " spelling " during the war years, particularly at the Ports of Auckland and Wellington. This has been brought about through the shortage of labour at these ports and the consequent high average hours of work. While the Commission agrees that workers performing manual labour are entitled to reasonable rest periods, there can be no justification for the present spelling to continue. Shift and Sunday work has been practically eliminated at Auckland and Wellington and the average hours of work are not excessive. The " spelling " practice is a danger to the health of the worker, as the men remaining in the hold are called upon to perform, and from the Commission's records it is found they do perform, the amount of work normally handled by the full gang. The Commission considered that each worker should be allowed a reasonable rest period during each four-hour working period between meal-hours, and discussions are taking place between the Commission and national executive of the union with a view to obtaining their co-operation in putting the proposals into effect. (d) AVERAGE AGE OF WORKER No records are available as to the average age of waterside workers, but from information that is available it is estimated that the average age during war years is something over fifty years. A large number of waterside workers serve many years as seamen or in other industries prior to joining the Waterside Workers' Union, and even in peacetime the average age of men employed on the waterfront is considerably higher than those employed in other industries. Having in mind the number of younger men who enlisted or who were called up and entered the Military Forces, and the fact that the Commission did not admit men to waterfront work who were subject to military service, the, average age during the war years must have increased considerably. The Commission is of the opinion that some alteration in the recruitment of waterside workers is required whereby the industry will obtain younger men who have not served the best years of their life in some other occupation. A number of older waterside workers who in normal circumstances woukl have retired, carried on work during the war years, and the Commission desires to place on record its appreciation for services rendered in the war effort.

5. SUPERVISION OF WORK At the end of March, 1941, the war situation had reached rather an alarming stage. The tonnage of shipping available to New Zealand had decreased considerably due to enemy action and withdrawals for service elsewhere, necessitating fuller use of available shipping, and as a consequence a centralization of overseas shipping at the main ports was adopted by Shipowners' Association and the round-the-clock system of working previously referred to was introduced. However, the various shipping companies did not increase their supervising staff of foremen; in fact, in the aggregate there were one or two less than in pre-war periods, due to retirements and enlistments. The aggregate number of foremen employed by the various shipping companies at Auckland and Wellington was approximately forty at each port, and they were divided up between day and night shifts, thus reducing the amount of supervision it was customary to give at any one period. The staff of foremen should have been increased by at least 50 per cent, to maintain the standard of supervision existing prior to the introduction of the shift system of working. Frequently only one foreman was on duty to attend six gangs working on a ship at night, when it was obvious that more supervision was necessary than in the daytime, and where in normal times three foremen would have been employed, and even this number was hardly sufficient for effective overseeing of the work. It is noted that in Australia a minimum of four foremen to a large ship was provided for, so it can be readily seen how inadequate was the supply of foremen to meet the needs of shipping. The result of this insufficient supervision was evident in the drop in the speed of working of the night shift and a number of abuses that crept in which were accentuated with the advent of United States ships and the sharp increase in non-union labour, and some of the abuses still remain an unsatisfactory feature. The system whereby individual companies employed their own foremen resulted also in some foremen being idle because no ships of their particular company happened to be in port, while other companies found it necessary to work their foremen excessive hours and expected them to supervise more gangs than they could properly do. The Commission considered the sensible thing to do was to pool the services of the foremen and bring them under one single control, because, under the contracting system of working, foremen were placed in an invidious position, being subject to control both by the shipping companies and the Commission's officers, and the fact that they were servants of the shipping companies gave grounds for a commonly held view among waterside workers that the real employers of waterside labour were the shipping companies, and the Commission was merely in an agency role. In view of the long-standing industrial feud between the waterside workers and the shipowners, this feeling was not conducive to that spirit so much required to attain the best war effort from the men, and although this commonly held viewpoint was not the true position, nevertheless it was understandable that the waterside workers should have reached the conclusions they did. The Commission, being anxious to foster the fullest amount of co-operation to perform the work and to make better use of the foremen, took them over at Auckland in June, 1942, and later at Wellington in November, 1942. The total work of the port was equalized among all foremen so that the burden of work was better distributed. The result of taking over the foremen at the above ports has not been so advantageous as was hoped, but this was not altogether due to the failure of the supervision. A major factor in the failure to attain a substantial improvement was the tremendous increase in the work of the two ports due to reasons referred to above, yet, in spite of the difficulties which presaged a reduction in the speed of handling cargo, the Commission's records show that in the majority of the classes of cargo handled since the foremen were taken over by the Commission there was an increase in the speed of working, although it represents a smaller amount than the Commission expected. When the acute problem of shed congestion is overcome and working-hours are brought back nearer to normal, there will undoubtedly be better scope to improve efficiency in both methods and speed of working, for which there still remains plenty of room. The Commission also undertook the responsibility for supervision of waterside workers at the following ports : — Date of Commencement of Commission Supervision. Wanganui .. .. .. •• •• 4th June, 1941. Nelson .. .. .. .. • • • ■ 29th April, 1942. Picton. .. .. .. ■ • • • • • 10th December, 1942. Greymouth .. .. .. • • • • • • 23rd January, 1943. Westport .. .. .. .. . • 9th October, 1944. At these ports the Commission appointed local officers of the union to act as supervisors, and it is gratifying to record that this policy has been successful. Members generally have given loyal support to the men appointed by the Commission, and the rates of work performed under contract have been very satisfactory. 6. CARGO CONTROL COMMITTEES Due to the fact that ships were being worked round the clock and on Sundays and holidays and delivery of cargo was only being taken during normal daylight hours, and also on account of a considerable portion of wharf shed space being made available to the American authorities, the Government considered it necessary to gazette Emergency Regulations giving the Hon. the Minister of Labour the power to appoint Cargo Control Committees for any port in New Zealand. The principal functions of the Committees were to expedite and arrange for the removal of goods from wharves and Railways goods-sheds with a view to preventing shed congestion, in order that ships would not be delayed. Committees representative of all interests, including chambers of commerce, merchants, carriers, Harbour Boards, shipping companies, Railways Department, Customs Department, Ministry of Supply, and Waterfront Control Commission were appointed at the Ports of Auckland, Wellington, and Lyttelton (including City of Christchurch). The Committee appointed for the Port of Lyttelton (including the City of Christchurch) did not have a great deal of work to perform and it was only on a few occasions that the powers of the regulations were used to clear goods from Railways goods-sheds. At the Port of Wellington the Committee performed valuable work in clearing goods from the wharf sheds. Portion of a Government store oft the wharf was made available and goods were removed to the store from time to time, the store being operated by the Ministry of Supply on behalf of the Cargo Control Committee. The main problem occurred at the Port of Auckland, where the whole of Prince's Wharf had been made available to the American authorities, and on occasions their vessels were also berthed at other wharves, severely restricting the amount of shed space available for civilian cargoes. It was necessary

7

H.—45

to obtain approximately 100,000 square feet of storage space off the wharves, and the Cargo Control Committee and staff at.that, port performed a valuable service in the war effort in preventing any acute shed congestion. In addition to the removal of goods to the Committee's stores, orders were issued for large quantities of cargo to be moved to consignee's stores in overtime hours. As a large quantity of the goods handled were subject to Price Orders, it was not reasonable to expect one consignee to take delivery of goods in overtime hours at considerably increased cost while his competitor had obtained delivery during normal working-hours, and the Government therefore agreed to the payment from War Expenses Account of the difference between ordinary and overtime rates of pay to carriers and storemen employed when the overtime was ordered by a Cargo Control Committee. Members of the Committee have performed their duties without remuneration, and the Commission desires to place on record the valuable services rendered in the war effort. Published in the Appendix (page 89) is a table showing the expenses and revenue of Cargo Control Committees at the Ports of Auckland and Wellington, the tonnage removed from wharves in overtime hours, and the tonnage handled into Cargo Control stores with cost per ton. It will be seen from the table that at the Port of Auckland 296,680 tons cargo was removed from the wharves during overtime hours at a cost from War Expenses Account of Is. 6-33 d. per ton. A total of 253,492 tons of cargo was received into and delivered from Cargo Control stores (during ordinary and overtime hours), the net casual labour handling cost being Is. 3-45 d. per ton and overall store cost 3s. 7-08 d. per ton. At the Port of Wellington 82,773 tons cargo was removed in overtime hours at a cost of Is. 6-6 d. per ton, and only 9,169 tons of cargo was removed to Cargo Control store (operated by Ministry of Supply). 7. ESTABLISHMENT OF UNITED STATES BASE IN NEW ZEALAND The establishment of a United States base in New Zealand early in 1942 threw a great strain on the cargo working and storage facilities and also the labour resources at the Ports of Auckland and Wellington. The main base was established at Auckland, and the American authorities were granted complete use of Prince's Wharf and also allocated berths at other wharves from time to time as required. Large stores were erected off the wharves to which goods were moved on discharge for sorting prior to loading for the war area. Some indication of the amount of work performed by waterside workers, including non-unionists, at the port of Auckland will be obtained from the following figures of wages paid out by the Commission's Central Pay Office :— y.„ Wages Paid on behalf of United m , , ..... * ear " States Authorities. Total Wa g es " £ £ 31st March, 1943 .. .. .. .. 433,429 1,138,708 31st March, 1944 .. .. .. .. 1,154,659 1,849,977 31st March, 1945 .. .. .. .. 542,300 1,258,412 £2,130,388 £4,247,097 It will be seen that for the three years approximately half the wages paid at the port represent work carried out on behalf of the United States authorities. It is estimated that the cargo loaded and discharged on behalf of the American authorities up to 31st March, 1945, was over 2,000,000 tons. The whole of this work was performed by civilian labour, and, generally speaking, vessels were given very good despatch, priority of labour being granted where supplies were urgently required in the forward area. Due to serious delays in discharge of vessels at other United States bases in the Pacific, frequently vessels were diverted to Auckland in order that they could be rapidly discharged and returned to the United States for further loads. At the Port of Wellington civilian labour was not in the first instance employed loading and discharging American vessels, this work being carried out by United States Marines. Large stores were built on Aotea Quay for use by the American authorities, and storage space was also provided off the wharves. Although Service personnel was being employed, the Commission offered every assistance to the American authorities, and from time to time made available supervising staff. When the Marines were moved from Wellington in 1943, civilian labour was made available, and early in 1944 all United States vessels loading and discharging at the Port of Wellington were worked under the co-operative contracting system, good work being performed. The cost of stevedoring operations performed on behalf of United States authorities in New Zealand was met by the New Zealand Government under reverse lend-lease. 8. THE INDUSTRIAL REST PERIOD EMERGENCY REGULATIONS 1943 In December, 1943, the above regulations were gazetted for the purpose of providing a minimum rest period for workers in industry with a view to securing the efficient prosecution of the war and generally safeguarding the interests and maintaining and promoting the welfare of the community. The regulations granted to workers who were not entitled to annual holidays on pay a minimum rest period of five days at ordinary rates of pay. Union waterside workers who had been regularly employed or who had regularly attended for employment in the industry during the three months ending 21st December, 1943, were granted five days' holiday and payment therefor of forty hours at 3s. 2d. per hour = £6 6s. Bd. Similar payment was made to non-unionists where the worker had been regularly employed or had regularly attended for employment in both ordinary and overtime hours and relied substantially on the waterfront for a livelihood. Although a number of problems arose in the administration of the regulations as affecting the waterfront, the holidays were granted with a minimum of inconvenience to the industry and to the general satisfaction of the workers. Accounts of the fund are published in the Appendix (pages 79 and 84), and detailed explanation is set out in the heading under " Accounts." 9. ANNUAL HOLIDAYS ACT, 1944 Due to the problems in granting annual holidays to waterside workers, provision was made in the Annual Holidays Act, 1944, whereby workers employed under the terms of any order of the Waterfront Control Commission and workers employed as tally clerks are to bo allowed holidays on such terms and conditions (on the basis of two weeks' holiday on ordinary pay for each year of employment) as may from time to time be approved by the Minister.

8

H.—45

The Act came into force on the Ist August, 1944, and in April of that year the N.Z. Waterside Employers' Association and the N.Z. Waterside Workers' Union were requested to prepare detailed proposals for consideration by the Commission. The association submitted a scheme based on the paid hours whereby each worker would be granted two weeks' holiday (payment on basis of 40 hours per week) for 2,000 hours of work, with proportionate payment for lesser hours. It is regretted that the union did not submit any detailed proposals. The Commission considered that the basis of hours of work would unduly penalize workers at secondary ports, where the work was irregular, and there should be some credit for attendance, and it accordingly drafted a comprehensive scheme based on the worker's availability for work. This. scheme was later adopted by the association and union, and approval thereto was granted by the Hon. the Minister of Labour. Full details of the conditions under which h«lidays are based have been circulated from time to time and have also been published in the Transport Worker. As far as is possible, annual holidays are granted to workers at times to suit their requirements, and it is pleasing to record that, notwithstanding the many problems which arose, the Act has operated smoothly and both employers and workers have expressed their appreciation of the Commission's administration thereof. Accounts of the fund are published in the Appendix (page 81), and comments thereon are set out under the heading " Accounts." 10. RATES OF PAY —AVERAGE WAGE—AVERAGE HOURS The waterside workers' award expired on 30th June, 1938, and shortly after the Commission's appointment in April, 194-0, it heard representatives of the parties regarding the outstanding claims of the union which had been pending for approximately two years. The Commission departed from the basis adopted by the Court of Arbitration, which fixed the rate of pay according to average hours of work. For a period of fifteen years prior to the standard-wage pronouncement of 1937, waterside workers had received an average of 6d. per hour in excess of standard minimum hourly rate for unskilled workers, and an increase was granted of 2d. per hour, bringing the ordinary time rate to 2s. lOd. per hour, which restored the wages of waterside workers to the relative position of other workers. (Reasons for making the increase are set out in the memorandum to Commission's main order of 6th June, 1940.) The Court of Arbitration made a general order, effective from 12th August, 1940, increasing the remuneration by 5 per cent, of all workers covered by awards. This increase, which was a cost-of-living bonus, was granted to waterside workers as from 16th October, 1940. When the Court granted the second cost-of-living bonus of a further 5 per cent, as from 7th April, 1942, it made a proviso that this should not exceed ss. per week for adult male workers, 2s. 6d. per week for adult females, and Is, 6d. per. week for juniors. This limitation could not be satisfactorily applied to a large body of casual workers employed by different employers in each week. It was estimated that the two cost-of-living bonuses were equivalent to 4d. per hour of all hours worked (irrespective of ordinary or overtime), and the rate of pay was adjusted on that basis as from 13th May, 1942, the new rate being 2s. lOd. per hour plus 4d. per hour cost-of-living bonus—the 4d. not being increased in overtime hours. This rate applied up to Ist. April, 1945, when the basic rate was increased by 3|d. per hour following a similar increase granted by the Court of Arbitration to other workers. The Commission has experienced some difficulty in determining what may be correctly shown as the average wage and average hours of work per week on the waterfront, due to the varying numbers of men employed and available for employment at each port from time to time. An examination of the following tables published in the Appendix will, however, reveal the position as accurately as it can be shown : —• (a) Return showing average wage of unionists per man-week worked for years ending 31st March, 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944, and 1945. (Note. —This return has been based on the man-weeks worked and does not show the true average weekly wage over the whole year as all men are not employed for fifty-two weeks.) (See return of earnings according to income groups (Appendix, page 73).) (b) Return showing earnings of union waterside workers for year ending 31st March, 1944, analysed according to income groups (Appendix, page 73). (c) Return showing earnings of union waterside workers for year ending 31st March, 1945, analysed according to income groups (Appendix, page 73). (d) Return showing average total earnings, profit distributions, ordinary and overtime hours, weeks, and holidays worked by unionists with highest earnings for year ended 31st March, 1944 (Appendix, page 74). (e) Return showing average total earnings, profit distributions, ordinary and overtime hours, weeks, and holidays worked by unionists with highest earnings for year ended 31st March, 1945 (Appendix, page 74). (/) Return showing average hours per week (distinguishing between ordinary and overtime) worked by unionists for fifty-two weeks ended 27th March, 1945 (Appendix, page 72). (Note.—The hours taken for this return are paid hours. Due to casual nature of work and as waterside workers are required to attend each day for employment, the actual average hours of attendance would be considerably greater than shown.) 11. GUARANTEED WAGE The guaranteed wage of £3 6s. Od. per week applies only at the ports of Auckland, Wellington, and Lyttelton and is, in fact, a guarantee of employment to that value. It is restricted to "A " grade waterside workers who observe the Bureau rules, and where a worker suffers any penalty he forfeits his right to the guarantee during that week. The amounts paid out at the ports for the five years ending 31st March, 1945, were as follows :—

H.—45

From the above figures it will be seen that the present guarantee does not mean very much to the worker, and although the union has from time to time made requests for the extension of the present scheme to other ports, no effort has been made to submit alternative proposals. The union, in requesting the extension of the present scheme to secondary ports, would not depart from the guarantee based on weekly earnings, and the Commission found it difficult to justify payment in one week where the earnings of the worker may have been as high as £10 to £15 in both the previous and succeeding weeks, and suggested that the scheme for secondary ports be based on four-weekly average. The Commission considers, however, that a more comprehensive scheme should be provided to cover all -ports. The question is one which requires thorough research and investigation and will no doubt also be affected by the proposed Government legislation regarding family income. In the meantime the union and the N.Z. Waterside Employers' Association have been requested to prepare detailed proposals setting out their views. 12. WAITING-ROOM ACCOMMODATION AND FACILITIES It is the responsibility of Harbour Boards to provide suitable waiting-room accommodation for waterside workers, but a number of Harbour Boards have done little to fulfil this obligation, and the standard of accommodation at some ports is totally inadequate. Although there has been a shortage of labour and materials during the war years, it is considered that more could have been done to improve the waiting-room accommodation at certain ports. Some Harbour Boards have not been in a financial position to erect new buildings, and the Commission has assisted. At Napier a new assembly hall and administrative offices has been erected by the Commission at a cost of approximately £7,500, and the building is a very decided improvement on the facilities which previously existed. Waterside workers and other persons using the buildings have expressed their appreciation for the up-to-date facilities, and the Commission is pleased to record that members are exercising every care in its use. Administrative offices and waiting-rooms are also being erected by the Commission at Westport and Greymouth, where the accommodation is very unsatisfactory. The N.Z. Waterside Employers' Association is sympathetic to the needs of waterside workers for improved accommodation and has stated it is prepared to join with the union in making representations to the various Harbour Boards. In addition to waiting-room accommodation, there is a need at main ports for modern restaurant and canteen facilities within the confines of the wharves where meals can be obtained at reasonable prices. The Commission trusts that with the cessation of hostilities the shortage of labour and materials will be easier and Harbour Boards will take steps to carry out additions and improvements where required. 13. ACCOUNTS (1) GENERAL The extension and diversification of the Commission's activities during the five years covered by this report is reflected in the increased number of funds in operation. In addition to Consolidated Fund expenditure, Co-operative Contracting and Labour Engagement Bureaux, and Central Pay Offices (now National Pay Office Fund), further funds were established during the period for Supervision, Industrial Rest Period, Annual Holidays Act, Buildings, and for General (Administration). Summarized, the present position regarding the headings under which the Commission's accounts are grouped is as follows : — Name of Fund. Date from which Fund operative. Consolidated (Vote " Labour ") . . .. .. 9th April, 1940. Co-operative Contracting .. .. .. .. 10th July, 1940. National Pay Office .. .. .. .. .. 10th July, 1940. General (Administration) .. .. .. .. 9th April, 1940. Supervision .. .. .. .. .. .. 29th April, 1942. Industrial Rest Period .. .. .. .. 7th December, 1943. Annual Holidays Act .. .. .. Ist August, 1944. Buildings . . . . . . . . .. . . Ist April, 1944-. Detailed statements of account for each fund covering Revenue, Appropriation, and Accumulated Funds accounts for the year ended 31st March, 1945, and Balance-sheet as at 31st March, 1945, are included in the Appendix. Summarized comparative annual statements of Revenue, Appropriation, and Accumulated Funds accounts for each fund in operation prior to Ist April, 1944-, are also included in order to cover the four-year gap since the Commission's previously published accounts (1941). In order to illustrate the overall growth and development of the Commission's activities, two combined " all funds " statements have been added to the Appendix (pages 86 and 87) and show— (a) Annual totals of all expenditure and income, &c., controlled by the Commission. (b) Total fund expenditures and incomes for the five-year period ended 31st March, 1945, including percentage of each fund to total " all funds " income and expenditure. These statements reveal the following points : —• (i) Total income rose from £437,201 in 1940-41 to £3,584,366 in 1913 44 (peak year), falling to £2,944,598 in 1944-45, and aggregating £10,286,700 for the five-year period. (ii) Total expenditure increased from £384,874 in 1940-41 to £3,356,839 in 1943-44 (peak year), decreased to £2,742,634 in 1944-45, and amounted to £9,508,791 over the five-year period. (iii) Total Profit Distribution (99-60 per cent. Co-operative Contracts Fund ; 0-40 per cent. Supervision Fund), which in 1940—41 was £42,799, increased progressively to £174,642 in 1944-45, and totalled £622,483 for the five years. (iv) Co-operative Contracts Fund accounts for 93-68 per cent, of the " total income " and for 94-13 per cent, of the " total expenditure " for the five year period. (v) Administrative costs under all headings amount to only 3-77 per cent, of " total income " and 3-46 per cent, of " total expenditure," the figures for the individual administrative funds being— ■p, j Percentage of Percentage of "Total Income." " Total Expenditure." General (Administration) .. .. 0• 90 0-87 National Pay Office .. .. ..2-34 2-01 Consolidated (Vote" Labour") .. .. 0-53 0-58 3-77 3-46

(vi) Undistributed funds over the five-year period represent 1-47 per cent, of " total income," out of the which £90,000 (0-87 per cent.) has been set aside in reserve accounts for the benefit of the industry. The spccial circumstances connected with the establishment and operation of each fund are dealt with hereunder. (2) CONSOLIDATED (VOTE " LABOUR ") FUND (SEE Appendix, PAGE 85) Up to 31st March, 1944, the net expenditure under this heading was provided by annual parliamentary appropriation and represents the portion of the Commission's administrative costs which is not covered by direct charges on the industry (salaries of Commissioners, Controllers, &c., and portion office expenses). Other expenditure (salaries of Wharf Superintendents, &c., and balance office expenses) are provided for in first instance by parliamentary appropriation, but are refundable by the Commission as credits-in-aid in terms of clause 23 (3) of the Waterfront Control Commission Emergency Regulations 1940. As from Ist April, 1944, in view of the fact that the Commission's expenditure outside the Consolidated Fund for the year ended 31st March, 1944, was over £3,000,000, .as against net expenditure from Consolidated Fund of only £11,941, and in order to obviate the necessity of analysing all Treasury vouchers for the purpose of assessing the proportion refundable by the Commission, a grant was provided to cover the estimated net administrative expenditure of £11,870. This action also enabled consolidation, involving simplification of accounting procedure and audit by the Audit Office to be carried out. (See also under Sections—General5 —General (Administration) Fund). Net expenditure under this fund increased progressively from £8,835 for 1940-41 to £11,941 in .1943—44 due to the continuing expansion of the Commission's activities to cope with wartime requirements, including " round-the-clock " working of all overseas and coastal (over 350 tons net register) vessels and transfers of labour from port to port. A reduction to £11,870 was effected in 1944-45, and the small addition of £800 included in the estimated grant for 1945-46 (£12,670) is occasioned by increases in salaries approved by Cabinet. (3) CO-OPERATIVE CONTRACTING FUND (see Appendix, page 77 and 83) This is the Commission's major operating fund, covering, as it does, all the financial transactions directly attributable to waterside labour costs in discharging and loading ships at all the main and secondary ports of New Zealand. There have, however, been two major changes during the five-yearly period in the scope of the activities included in the accounts of this fund. In the first place, the General Revenue Account, Appropriation Account, and Balance-sheet as at 31st March, 1941, published in the Commission's first annual report and statement of accounts (H. -45, dated Bth August, 1941, page 11), were deemed to refer solely to the co-operative contracting system and, as will be seen, included not only the direct contracting expenses for wages and Pay Office levies, but also the general office expenses incurred in arranging for the preparation of accounts and collection and distribution of profits. This continued to be the position until the year ended 31st March, 1943, during which period the Supervision Fund was inaugurated. At this stage, in order to avoid the difficulty of assessing general office expenses against each fund, the Commission decided to set up a separate General (Administration) Fund (see Section 5). In preparing the comparative summaries of Revenue, &c., Accounts for the Co-operative Contracting and General (Administration) Funds, therefore, the expenditure on general office expenses included in the Commission's General Revenue Accounts for the years ended 31st March, 1941, 1942, and 1943, has been replaced in the Co-operative Contracting Fund by the item, " Administration : Assessment " which has been treated as the income for those years in the General (Administration) Fund. Further detailed explanations of the basis adopted in fixing " Administration : Assessments "is given in Section 5. In the second place, as a result of the reorganization of the Commission's accounting system which was carried out in conjunction with the formation of the National Pay Office Fund (see Section 4), the responsibility for recouping all waterfront wages expenditure, whether on account of co-operative contracts or otherwise (non-contracts —that is, wages basis only; equivalent contracts —that is, wages, plus average or similar profit distribution, &c.), devolved upon the Co-operative Contracts Fund. This explains the tremendous jump in income during 1943-44 and 1944-45 (average, £3,043,313) as against 1941-42 and 1942-43 (average, £1,571,182), which is mainly due to the large volume of non-contract work carried out during 1943-44 and 1944-45 for the American authorities, particularly at Auckland (total of £1,696,959 for the two years). Co-operative (including equivalent) contract income has remained fairly steady during the throe years ended 31st March, 1945, at around £1,800,000 per annum, and totalling £7,213,607 for the five-year period. Out of this last amount a total not profit of £685,494 (9| per cent.) has been earned, of which £623,777, or (91 per cent., has been paid out as profit distributions to waterside workers or as grants to union sick benefits societies, &c. £50,000, or 7-3 per cent., has been set aside as reserves, and £11,717, or l - 7 per cent., is carried forward as unallotted profits. The corresponding figures for 1944-45 as shown in the accounts for the Co-operative Contracts Fund (Appendix, page 77) are above the five-year average. The net profit of £183,922 for the year ended 31st March, 1945, is equal to 10 per cent, of contract (including equivalent) income, while profit distributions and grants absorbed 95-2 per cent, of net profit (£175,035); reserves, 2-7 per cent. (£5,000) ; and unallotted profit, 2-1 per cent. (£3,887). 4. NATIONAL PAY OFFICE FUND (see Appendix, pages 79 and 84) The chief purpose of this fund is to provide for the administrative costs of the Waterfront Labour Engagement Bureaux (including salaries, &c., of Wharf Superintendents) and Waterfront Central Pay Offices. With the growth, however, of the Commission's general activities, the Waterfront Central Pay Offices have become, in addition, local financial agencies for the Commission, and have handled local administrative work for other funds such as Supervision, Industrial Rest Period, and Annual Holidays Act. The income of the National Pay Office Fund is derived from levies or surcharges upon the income of other funds and is thus linked to the volume and value of waterfront activities. The National Pay Office levy therefore applies to all funds with the exception of Consolidated (Vote " Labour ") and General (Administration), which are Head Office funds (see Sections 2 and 5). The present rate of levy is 2 per cent. Prior to the establishment of a National Fund as from Ist April, 1943, each port organization stood on its own, and levies ranged from 2 per cent, at Auckland to 3£ per cent, at

11

H.—45

Wanganui, the majority of rates being 2| per cent. The list of ports where local Central Pay Offices were in operation by the Commission as at 31st March, 1946, are as follows :—

Reference to the Commission's 1940-41 statement of accounts will reveal that a tabulated statement was submitted of Revenue Accounts for periods ended 31st March, 1941, and Balance-sheets as at 31st March, 1941, showing the details of each of the six ports where Central Pay Office and Labour Engagement Bureau organizations were then operated by the Commission. These tabulated statements were compiled from audited accounts and Balance-sheets submitted to the Commission by auditors appointed for each port by the Audit Office in terms of Regulation 16 (5) of the Waterfront Control Commission Emergency Regulations 1940. This method of local Pay Office accounting was continued also during the financial years ended 31st March, 1942 and 1943. On the 11th day of March, 1943, however, a conference was held between the Commission and shipowners' representatives at which it was agreed that with a view to (1) spreading the cost of Central Pay Office and Labour Engagement Bureau operations more equitably (secondary ports were encountering financial difficulties due mainly to the centralization of shipping), and (2) providing for the extension of Central Pay Office facilities to smaller ports, a National Pay Office Fund should be established as from Ist April, 1943, to which the various port assets and liabilities as at 31st March, 1943, would be transferred. It was further agreed that all Pay Office levies would be reduced to the lowest rate then ruling (2 per cent.), and the Commission undertook to maintain a uniform rate of levy which would apply equally to such Central Pay Offices as might be opened at smaller ports. To give effect to these decisions the Commission issued Order No. 110 in March, 1943, and arranged to open a new Pay Office at Picton, while existing Pay Offices at Napier and Nelson were also brought within the scope of the National Fund. Since that date the Commission has established a further Pay Office at Westport, and in the financial year ended 31st March, 1946, it is expected that Timaru and Greymouth will enter the fund, which will then cover every main and secondary port except Gisborne, Onehunga, and Oamaru. As from Ist April, 1943, financial arrangements were also completed with the major shipping companies whereby the Commission undertook to advance all waterfront wage and other payments in. first instance. Provision to do this was made in Order No. 111, issued in March, 1943, and replaced the previous system of Central Pay Offices submitting weekly wage and levy accounts to shipping companies, which had to be settled on day of presentation in order that funds would be available for payment of wages, &c., on the succeeding day. To provide ports with the requisite funds the Commission made advances on the imprest system and deferred collection of wages payments, &c., made until contract or other accounts were submitted to the shipping companies concerned. The change in method of providing funds for wages, &c., was also necessary in order to integrate the Commission's general accounting system and to provide local financial facilities for the growing functions of the Commission. Consequent upon the foregoing changes, the accounting for the operations of the National Pay Office Fund has been temporarily centralized in the Commission's Head Office at Wellington, where it is carried out in conjunction with the accounting for other funds of the Commission. As staffing conditions permit, it is hoped to later decentralize not only National Pay Office Fund, but also all other funds' accounting operations. For the years ended 31st March, 1944 and 1945, however, audited accounts and Balance-sheets are only available for the fund as a whole, although information as to the operating revenue and expenditure of each port included in the fund is available in the Commission's Head Office at Wellington. In order to maintain uniformity, the Summary of Revenue, &c., Accounts for the period 10th July, 1940, to 31st March, 1945 (Appendix, page 84) includes totals only (all ports) of income and expenditure, &c., for the years 1940-41, 1941-42, and 1942-43 also. " Administration : Assessments " (see Section 5) have only been chargeable since the establishment of the National Pay Office Fund—i.e.'; not prior to Ist April, 1943. It will be seen from the Summary of Revenue, &c., Accounts that annual income rose from £17,539 in. 1940-41 to £66,529 in 1943-44. During 1944-45 direct levy income fell to £53,834, although the inclusion of Local General (Administration) expenditure (see Section 5) in National Pay Office Fund and the equivalent reimbursement of £11,633 has had the effect of raising the total income for the year to £66,476, giving a total for the five-yearly period of £240,785. The surplus of income over expenditure, which was £3,779 in 1940-41, rose to a peak figure of £18,971 in 1943-44, but declined sharply to £4,976 in 1944-45, aggregating £49,930 over the five years. The exceptional surpluses for 1942-43 and 1943-44 (amounting to £32,972, or 66 per cent, of the five years' income) are largely due to the influx of Services supply shipping, particularly at Auckland, during the early stages of the Pacific war. Of the total waterfront wage payments made through the Auckland Pay Office during these two years, amounting to £2,929,606, payments on behalf of the Americal authorities accounted for £1,588,086, equal to 54- per cent. While considerable staff increases were made to cope with this additional work, it was not possible or desirable to build up and maintain a permanent organization to handle this exceptional volume of wages, and hence substantial initial surpluses resulted. With the return to more normal working-hours during 1944-45 and the further reduction in hours of work which have since been carried out, the position as disclosed in the Revenue Account for the year ended 31st March, 1945

(Appendix, page 79), where the net balance available for appropriation was only £4,976, is more likely to occur in future years. With the cessation of work on behalf of American authorities and reduction of overtime work, the 2 per cent, may even prove insufficient. At the 31st March, 1943, immediately prior to the formation of the National Pay Office Fund, the Accumulated Funds Account balance for all ports then stood at £25,983. In accordance with an undertaking given to shipping company representatives, the bulk of this amount (£25,000) was set aside in the year ended 31st March, 1944, as a Guaranteed Wage Reserve. The opportunity was also taken to allot £10,000 out of the exceptional surplus for 1943-44 as portion of a Building Reserve (see Section. 9), and a further £5,000, making £15,000, in all was appropriated to this reserve during th§ year ended 31st March, 1945. Unallotted surpluses as at 31st March, 1945, stand at £9,780, it having been necessary during 1944-45 to transfer back £174 to Appropriation Account. (5) GENERAL (ADMINISTRATION) FUND (see Appendix, pages 78 and 83) The Commission's administrative costs are divided into three groups : — (i) Expenses of the Commission as an administrative unit of the general structure of Government, and as such not directly chargeable to the industry. This portion is, covered under the heading Consolidated (Vote "Labour") Fund (see Section 2, above). (ii) Expenses of the Waterfront Labour Bureaux and Waterfront Central Pay Offices taken over or established by the Commission. These are local port organizations providing for the central engagement and paying of waterfront labour, and were previously operated through Shipowners' Co-operative Labour Employment Associations. The cost of this, the largest portion of the Commission's administrative costs, are therefore a direct charge on shipping companies (see Section 4—National Pay Office Fund). (iii) Expenses of preparation of Co-operative Contract Fund Accounts and collection and distribution of Co-operative Contract profits ; also general Head Office expenses in connection with the operation of the various funds of the Commission, including at present the keeping of all statistical records and accounts and preparation of annual . statements of accounts. It is this portion of the Commission's administrative costs which is met out of the income of the General (Administration) Fund. The incomc of the General (Administration) Fund is fixed by the Commission by way of internal percentage assessment on the income of the other funds operated by the Commission (except Consolidated (Vote " Labour ") Fund). Thus no direct charges for General (Administration) appear on Co-operative Contract or other accounts issued to shipping companies by the Commission. During the years ended 31st March, 1941 and 1942, the Co-operative Contract Fund was the only working fund operated through the Commission's Head Office in Wellington. Therefore, in preparing the annual statements of accounts for those years the need to distinguish between the two funds (General — Administration and Co-operative Contracts) did not arise and the balances' of the General (Administration) Fund were treated as those of a separate port within the Co-operative Contracts Fund. An assessment of 0-75 per cent, was made on Co-operative Contracts income to cover purely Head Office expenses, and, in addition, local office costs were allocated direct to the ports concerned. This position, however, was altered by the establishment of a Supervision Fund (see Section 6) during the year ended 31st March, 1943. With the projected establishment also of a National Pay Office Fund and possible further developments of the Commission's general activities, it was deemed desirable to segregate the income and expenditure, &c., on General (Administration) Fund work from the Co-operative Contracts Fund and to set up a separate fund under that name. For 1942-43 the same assessment was made on the Co-operative Contracts Fund as in previous years—-i.e., 0-75 per cent, on Co-operative Contracts income to cover Head Office expenses, plus allocation of local office expenses. In view of the much lower volume of income in relation to the administrative work involved in operating Supervision Fund, an assessment of 2 per cent, on income was fixed for Head Office expenses, and again certain sundry local expenses were charged direct in addition. With the establishment of the National Pay Office Fund as from Ist April, 1943, to cover all local port administration (except portion chargeable to Consolidated (Vote " Labour ") Fund) and the reorganization of the Commission's general accounting procedure, it was decided to simplify the method of assessing General (Administration) charges by including local office as well as Head Office expenses of this nature in the general assessment. Thus the General (Administration) Fund assessment on Co-operative Contracts Funds was increased to 1 per cent, on all income (except American non-contracts at Auckland =£1,154,659) for the year ended 31st March, 1944, and the 2 per cent, assessment on Supervision Fund was deemed sufficient also to cover the minor local expenses not chargeable against National Pay Office Fund. A similar assessment of 2 per cent, was fixed for the National Pay Office Fund, the general accounting for which was centralized in Head Office as from Ist April, 1943 (see Section 4), and for the Industrial Rest Period Fund, which was also established during this financial year. On 3rd August, 1944, the Waterfront Control Commission Emergency Regulations, Amendment No. 2, were gazetted, wherein provision was made (clause 5 (4) ) for the appropriation by Parliament of a single annual " grant towards administrative expenses " in place of the previous annual detailed appropriations for salaries, &c. (Note.—Details of the grant are still embodied in a footnote to the parliamentary Estimates of Expenditure and are also shown in the table on page 85 of the Appendix to this report). The effect of this provision was to enable further simplification and consolidation of the Commission's accounting system to be carried out. It was now possible to group all local office expenses together under National Pay Office Fund, even though they primarily concerned Consolidated (Vote " Labour ") Fund or General (Administration) Fund. In many instances in the past officers were called upon to carry out duties apportionable to all three sub-headings of Administration and the consequent allocation of costs was of necessity somewhat arbitrary in nature. On the basis, therefore, of experience gained in assessing expenditure during the previous four years, one overall "reimbursement to National Pay Office Fund" was made as at 31st March, 1945, to cover local Co-operative Contracting and Consolidated (Vote " Labour ") administrative expenses, which are now, for purposes of simplified accounting procedure, treated in first instance as charges against the National Pay Office Fund. As from Ist April, 1944, also, the annual parliamentary appropriation, which is now in the nature of a similar overall contribution, is incorporated as income in the General (Administration) Fund. Assessments on the other funds have been maintained for 1944-45 on the same basis as in 1943-44 —i.e., 1 per cent, on Co-operative Contracts Fund income (again excluding American non-contracts at Auckland of £542,300) and 2 per cent, on income on other funds which this year include two additional headings for Annual Holidays Act and Buildings,

For purposes of comparison the Summary of Revenue, &c., Accounts for the General (Administration) Fund (Appendix, page 83) has been prepared to include the 1940-41 and 1941-42 figures, which were originally incorporated in the Co-operative Contracts Fund Accounts for those years (see also Section 3). It will be seen from this summary that the income of this fund rose from £3,537 in 1940-41 to £25,625 in 1943-44. During 1944-45 income rose to £37,306, but this increase is due to the change in accounting procedure which involved the inclusion of parliamentary appropriation of £11,870. The income from assessments on funds at £25,399 is approximately the same as for 1943-44 and gives a total over the five years of £80,851 or, inclusive of 1944-45 parliamentary appropriation and sundries, £92,776. Total expenditure has risen from £2,757 in 1940-41 to £36,395 in 1944-45, although again the 1944-45 increase of £15,099 over 1943-44 is mainly attritubable to the inclusion of the estimated Consolidated (Vote " Labour ") Fund expenditure of £11,870, the balance of £3,229 being due to expansion of staff, &c., which began half-way through 1943-44. Aggregate expenditure over the five years' period is £82,750 (inclusive of the £11,870 Consolidated (Vote "Labour") in 1944-45). The net surplus of income over expenditure, which was £780 in 1940-41, rose to £4,329 in 1943-44, but declined sharply to £911 in 1944-45, and totalled £10,026 over the five-yearly period. The exceptional surplus in 1943-44 is due, as explained a few lines earlier, to the fact that certain increases in staff, &c., anticipated during the year did not, in effect, materialize until approximately half-way through the financial year. It will be noted from the Statement of Revenue Account, &c., of this fund for the year ended 31st March, 1945 (Appendix, page 78), that salaries accounted for 53-02 per cent., or slightly over half the year's total expenditure, while 31-96 per cent., or almost one-third, of expenditure is included in the item " Reimbursement to National Pay Office Fund." The net balance of £911 carried down to Accumulated Funds Account amounted to only 2-44 per cent, of total income for the year. On the other hand, Co-operative Contracts Fund provided 58-07 per cent., or nearly three-fifths of income, and another 31-81 per cent, is represented by the item " Parliamentary appropriation." Other funds contributed approximately 3 per cent. each. Total Accumulated Funds as at 31st March, 1945, stand at £10,016, represented by investments of £2,094 ; fixed assets, £3,728 ; and cash, £4,194. (6) SUPERVISION FUND (see Appendix, pages 80 and 85) Statements of account of this fund summarize the incomes and expenditures, &c., on the provision of the services of foremen stevedores by the Commission at a total of six ports : Auckland, Wellington, Nelson, Picton, Westport, and Greymouth (see page 7) of report, heading " Supervision "). This is not a national fund, and the levies which form the bases of the incomes of the port funds vary from port to port. The following is a summary of the position.

In every case the Commission has not taken over the responsibilities for supervision of waterfront labour until the majority of the work of the port has been brought under the co-operative contracting system. The basic levies to provide for the fixed costs of foremen's wages, supervisors' salaries, and cargo-handling insurances have then been fixed as a percentage on co-operative contract price (or income) and are thus linked to the volume of work at the port. In addition, all overtime payments made to foremen stevedores in terms of awards or other agreements are chargeable back to shipping companies on the basis of actual disbursements made. A small proportion of supervision at Auckland and Wellington is carried out on non-contract jobs, and recovery for costs of such work is on the basis of the same hourly rates as charged by private stevedores prior to the advent of Commission supervision. As explained in Section 4—National Pay Office Fund—local administrative expenses are met out of the proceeds of National Pay Office levy of 2 per cent., which is added to the total supervision charges. All accounting is done in the Commission's Head Office at Wellington, and the cost of this is covered by the " Administration : Assessment "of 2 per cent, (see also under section 5). Owing to the changing conditions of employment of foremen it is necessary from time to time to adjust the basic levies to meet" the various fixed charges at the different ports. So far it has been possible to effect two reductions in charges —of f per cent, in the case of Wellington as from 2nd August, 1943, and of 1 per cent, in the case of Picton as from Ist August, 1944. It is anticipated that some adjustments will be necessary during the financial year ending 31st March, 1946, to cover the increases granted in recent awards and adjustments of the Court of Arbitration, and also because of the fall in the co-operative contract price due to the reduction in overtime hours worked. From the Summary of Revenue, &c., Accounts on page 85 of the Appendix it will be seen that income from levies, &c., which was £39,545 for broken periods included in the initial year ended 31st March, 1943, rose to £64,609 for 1943-44, but declined to £60,528 in 1944—45, totalling £164,682 for the three years. Expenditure has increased from £34,108 in 1942-43 to £55,957 in 1943-44 and £57,001 in 1944-45, a total of £147,066 for the full period of three years. Out of net profit, which was £5,437 in 1942-43, £8,652 in 1943-44, but only £3,527 in 1944-45, a total of £7,616 profit distributions have been paid to foremen stevedores at Auckland, Nelson, Picton, Westport, and Greymouth, totalling £2,491, or 14-14 per cent., of net profit over the three-yearly period. This leaves a balance of £15,125, or 9-2 per cent., of total income in Accumulated Funds Account as at 31st March, 1945. Details are available in the Head Office of the Commission at Wellington of the incomes and expenditures, &c., for each port for each year of operation of Commission's supervision. Reference to the Revenue Account, &c., for the Supervision Fund for the year ended 31st March, 1945 (Appendix, page 80) shows that foremen's wages and overtime amounted to £46,143, or 80-95 per cent., of the year's expenditure, while salaries at £5,917 (including salaried foremen at Ports of Nelson, Picton, Westport, and Greymouth) accounted for 10-38 per cent., and insurances on cargo handled were

£3,591, or 6-30 per cent, of expenditure. Out of a net profit for the year of £3,527 (equal to 5-83 per cent, of income), £1,182, or 33-52 per cent., was allotted as profit distributions to foremen and £2,345 or 3-88 per cent., of total income was carried down to Accumulated Funds Account. (7) INDUSTRIAL REST PERIOD FUND (see Appendix, pages 79 and 84) The statements of account for this fund cover the cost of the rest periods (maximum of one week per man) granted to waterside workers throughout New Zealand in terms of the Industrial Rest Period Emergency Regulations 1943. A capital levy to provide the income for the fund was fixed by the Commission on the basis of 1| per cent, on waterfront wages payments by or on behalf of shipping companies and other employers of waterfront labour during the thirty-nine weeks covering the period Ist April to 28th December, 1943. This levy was deemed also to include cost of disbursement of restperiod wages through National Pay Office Fund on the basis of 2 per cent, of such wages payments. As it was impossible to estimate exactly the anticipated cost of providing the rest periods, the Commission undertook to transfer any balances remaining in this fund (which was of a non-recurring nature) to the permanent fund for provision of annual holidays which would need to be set up under the Government's forthcoming Annual Holidays Bill covering all casual workers (see Section (8) —Aonual Holidays Fund). Reference to the Summary of the Revenue Account, &c., of the Industrial Rest Period Fund on page 84 of the Appendix shows that the total income collected for this fund up to 31st March, 1945, amounted to £37,691, while total payments of rest-period wages during the same period were £30,486. National Pay Office levies absorbed £609 and " Administration : Assessment" (on the basis of 2 per cent, on income to cover Head Office expenses of preparation and collection of accounts, &c.) amounted to £754, leaving a balance of £5,842 in Accumulated Funds Account as at 31st March, 1945. The bulk of the income and expenditure was, of course, included in the accounts for the period ended 31st March, 1944. The Revenue, &c., Accounts for this fund appearing on page 79 of the Appendix deal only with minor additional items of income and expenditure which could not be finalized prior to the closing of the accounts for the previous financial year. There are a few small items still to be dealt with, but it is expected that this fund will be closed off and the balance transferred to Annual Holidays Act Fund during the financial year ending 31st March, 1946. (8) ANNUAL HOLIDAYS ACT FUND (see Appendix, page 81) This fund, which was established as from Ist August, 1944, covers the cost of the application of the Annual Holidays Act, 1944, to casual waterside workers at all main and secondary ports in New Zealand (for list of these ports, see table in Appendix 19. Patea is also included in the fund). The provisions for financing the fund are based on the number of estimated annual paid labour hours. This is considered a more equitable basis than the amount of wages paid, as annual-holiday payments are only fixed in relation to ordinary time rates of pay, whether the work is performed in ordinary or overtime. The initial levy fixed by the Commission was at the rate of 2d. (twopence) per paid labour hour. Annualholiday payments to the waterside workers are determined on the basis of four hours ordinary time rate of pay for each fourteen days (Mondays to Saturdays) a member works or is available for work during the year in the case of union waterside workers, and at the rate of one twenty-fifth of ordinary time hourly rate of pay for each paid labour hour in the case of non-union waterside workers. Details of the conditions governing the operations of the Annual Holidays Act Fund are given on page 8 of the report. The Revenue Account, &c., presented for the Annual Holidays Act Fund on page 81 of the Appendix covers only the first eight months' operation of the fund. Inasmuch as the major payments under the fund—those to union waterside workers, which are based on number of days worked, &c. — cannot be finally determined until after the completion of the annual holiday year on 31st July, 1945, it is not possible to present a strictly accurate statement of the accounts of the fund as at 31st March, 1945. Provision was made by the Commission in terms of the Act for the granting of annual holidays, or one week thereof, in advance of due date to union waterside workers, and in such cases a maximum payment of one week's holiday pay was made at the time the holidays were taken. The total of such payments up to 31st March, 1945, was £26,150. In addition, it was estimated that the balance of accrued union holiday pay as at 31st March, 1945, would be not less than £16,000, which amount is included in " Creditors " in the Balance-sheet as at 31st March, 1945, and gives a total for " Annual holiday pay —Union " of £42,150 as shown in the Revenue Account. At all ports covered by the fund except Auckland, payments of non-union holiday pay were made week by week in accordance with the provisions of section sof the Annual Holidays Act, 1944. In the case of Auckland the value of accrued non-union holiday pay based on the total number of total paid labour hours of such workers for the eight months ended 31st March, 1945, was £4,694, and is also included in " Creditors "in the Balance-sheet as at 31st March, 1945. The expenditure of £7,183 shown in the Revenue Account for " Annual holidays pay : Non-union " is therefore the full and exact liability of the fund under this heading for the eight months' period. It will be noted that levies for the period amounted to £59,429, while expenditure on the basis explained above was £50,521, of which union annual holiday pay accounted for 83-43 per cent, and non-union annual holiday pay for 14-22 per cent. The usual " Administration : Assessment " of 2 per cent, on income has also been charged to cover Head Office expenses in preparation and collection of accounts, &c. A review of the financial position of the fund will be carried out after the close of the holiday year, 31st July, 1945. As mentioned in Section 7, the final balance of Industrial Rest Period Fund is to bo transferred to this fund ; but, in view of increases in the basic rates of pay as from Ist April, 1945, and in order to make provision for YE and VJ Day payments (two days and one and a half days respectively), the Commission has, in the interim, increased the annual holiday levy from twopence (2d.) to twopence farthing (2jd.) per paid labour hour. (9) BUILDING FUNDS (see Appendix, page 82) During the year ended 31st March, 1944, the Commission found that, whereas there was an urgent need for improved or new accommodation both for men's waiting-rooms and for waterfront offices at many of the main and secondary ports in New Zealand, Harbour Boards, on whom the primary responsibility fell for the provision of such accommodation, were in several instances in financial difficulties due to the diversions of normal shipping trade to meet the exigencies of the war situation. To assist in overcoming the existing difficulties and in order to meet the most pressing needs, the Commission decided, as at 31st March, 1944, to set aside £20,000 out of accumulated net balances as a Buildings Reserve. This amount was allotted in equal proportions of £10,000 each from National Pay Office and Co-operative Contracts Funds and appeared among the liabilities of those funds in their respective Balance-sheets as at 31st March, 1944,

15

H.—45

In the course of the year ended 31st March, 1945, a watersiders' assembly hall and Commission's . administrative offices building'was completed at the Port of Napier (Breakwater) and a Bureau Engagement Board shelter shed was erected at the Port of Wellington. The Commission has now decided that for the purposes of (i) establishing a General Repairs and Maintenance-Account, and (ii) more effective accounting for expenditure on buildings, a separate Buildings Fund, should be established as from Ist April, J 944, to which all assets and liabilities as at that date would be transferred from National Pay Office and Co-operative Contracts Funds. For the year ended 31st March, 1945, the Commission also appropriated a further £10,000 in equal proportions from the National Pay Office and Co-operative Contracts Funds, making total reserves set aside for building purposes as at 31st March, 1945, of £30,000. In addition to expenditure on actual buildings, suitable sites for the erection of waterside assembly hall and administrative office accommodation have been purchased at Greymouth (year ended 31st March, 1944) and Bluff (year ended 31st March, 1945) at a total cost of £924. To provide funds for upkeep, &c., of buildings erected, the Commission has decided to charge "the port funds concerned a levy of 5 per cent, on original capital cost. Out of this income provision will be made for depreciation, and the balance will be held as accumulated funds to meet future major repairs and maintenance charges. The accounts for this fund for the year ended 31st March, 1945 (Appendix, page 82) show that out of levies totalling £334, which were credited for the period, £234, or 70-19 per cent., were set aside for depreciation, leaving £93, or 27-81 per cent., to carry down to accumulated funds after provision for the usual " Administrative : Assessment " of 2 per cent, on income. Buildings completed or in progress as at 31st March, 1945, less depreciation, have a book value of £9,981. Further accommodation is in course of construction at the ports of Westport and Greymouth. 14. CONCLUSION —" OVERALL " CONTRACTING—FUTURE OF COMMISSION The comprehensive information supplied in this report will give some indication as to the extent of the organization and activities of the Commission during the war years. Apart from staff employed in Labour Engagement Bureaux and Central Pay Offices, the greater portion of the Commission's staff has been engaged in connection with the operations of the co-operative contracting system. This system, based on " payment by results," has, on the whole, shown very satisfactory results. The change-over from wage basis has not been made, however, without certain doubts and mistrust by some sections of the union. The Commission feels that this is in part due to lack of understanding as to the true position and the principles of the contracting system, and it is hoped that with the detailed information now published there' will be a better understanding by individual members at each port. Members of the Commission have also not been able to make as many visits to each port as they would have wished. It lias been found that when these visits did occur and members of the branch were addressed, a large number of questions were asked and answered which materially assisted in supplying members with a better appreciation of the Commission's activities, resulting in closer co-operation and good will. For some time discussions have been taking place between representatives of shipping companies, union, and Commission regarding what has been termed " overall " contracting and the granting of further responsibilities to union members. The present contract system, which is based on the " winch" time or working time only, does not provide any incentive to workers to reduce delays and petty disputes regarding dirt-money claims, &c. Under the proposed " overall " contract, the rate would include all delays, removal and replacement of hatches, restowing and shifting cargo, special cargoes, dirt-money, minimum periods, &c. This would provide an incentive to the men to reduce the number of delays and dirt-money disputes. It is also proposed at ports where union members have shown that they are capable of accepting responsibility to grant some control in the management or supervision of the job. The Commission proposes to give this system a trial at an early date. Regarding the future of the Commission, which is constituted under War Emergency Regulations, the Commission understands that all sections of the industry agree that one central authority has considerable advantage over that operating prior to the war. Disputes concerning rates of pay and conditions of employment have always been a feature of the waterfront industry, due, no doubt, to the casual nature of the work. Prior to the appointment of the Commission it took months and sometimes years for disputes to be settled through the Local and National Disputes Committees and finally through an overworked Arbitration Court. Numbers of these disputes became magnified out of all. proportion to their original significance and, due to delays in arriving at decisions, stoppages of work occurred. The appointment of a Commission or tribunal with authority to fix wages and conditions of employment and settle disputes promptly has decided advantages. This is even more necessary to-day, as over 90 per cent, of waterfront work is performed on a contract system, which is infinitely more complicated than the hourly wage basis, and the Court, even if it had the time, would find it most difficult to determine contract rates which vary according to the class of cargo, number of men employed, type of vessel, and facilities of the port. There is no agreement, however, on the constitution of any such authority appointed. On the one hand, it is held that the controlling authority should be representative of both shipping companies and union, with an independent Chairman. The opposite view held is that the representatives of each party would cancel one another out by their partisanship and the responsibility of a settlement would in the majority of cases fall on the Chairman, who would be placed in an invidious position. The question as to whether the Commission or some other tribunal is to be retained as a peacetime organization, and the constitution of any such body, is a matter of Government policy. This report would not be complete without the Commission placing on record the efficient and loyal services rendered by all members of its staff during the past five years. R. E. Price ~) J.

BASIS OF CONVERSION OF CARGO UNITS TO TONS

Note—Weights of carcasses and quarters vary from year tp year owing to seasonal differences and/or preponderance of mutton to lamb. For the year 1940-41 the contracting system was not in force from the beginning of the year, and the. 1941-42. weights were accepted as a basis. FIGURES CONSTANT FOR ALL YEARS Cheese : 12f crates to ton. Wool: 1 bale = 350 lb. Butter : 64 lb. per box. Hardwoods : 333J s/ft per ton. Frozen sundries : 60 lb. per freight carcass. Softwoods : 500 s/ft per ton. Fruit: 25 cases to ton. Note.—lt will be seen that tonnage figures for quantities of cargo handled (total all classes) do not always agree with quantities in tons under stevedoring costs. The reasons for differences are as follows : (a) When members of ship's crew are employed and wages are not paid through Commission's central' pay-office the tonnage figures for costing purposes are reduced by a quantity arrived at by dividing the contract rate into the winch-time -credit for members of ship's crew employed ; (6) costing figures have not been taken out separately for all classes of cargo for which rates of work are recorded, the general principle being that cargo such as iron and steel, hides, tallow, wool, &c., are converted for costing purposes to general cargo tonnage in relationship to respective contract rates. These cargoes are shown under rates of work at actual quantity handled,

SUMMARY OF ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENDITURE FROM CONSOLIDATED FUND, VOTE, "LABOUR," PERIOD 1940-45 AND ESTIMATED FOR 1945-46

Notes.—(l) Commission's expenditure outside Consolidated Fund for year ended 31st March, 1944, was over £3,000,030, as against net expenditure from Consolidated Fund of only £11,941, with a view to obviating necessity of analysing all Treasury vouchers, and to obtain consolidation, involving simplification of accounting and audit by Audit Office, grant provided to cover estimated administrative expenditure. (2) The small increase in grant for year ended 31st March, 1946, is due to increases in salaries approved by Cabinet.
