Board dismisses preliminary objections to certification application based on estoppel, fraud, and abuse of process.

The Board dismissed these arguments, holding that estoppel cannot prevent the operation of a public statute like the Labour Relations Act, and that the applicant's conduct did not amount to fraud or an abuse of process as there was no misrepresentation or violation of the Act.
