1467-99-U Troy Campbell, Applicant v. National Automobile, Aerospace, Transportation & General Workers Union of Canada (CAW-Canada) and its Local 124, Responding Party v. Jutras Division of Meridian Operations Inc., Intervenor.
BEFORE: Caroline Rowan, Vice‑Chair.
DECISION OF THE BOARD; June 26, 2000
1. By decision dated May 19, 2000, the Board directed the applicant to file submissions in response to the request of the union and the intervenor that this matter be dismissed without a hearing or a consultation on the ground of delay and for failing to make out a prima facie case of a violation of section 74 of the Act. The Board has now received the applicant’s submissions.
2. Having reviewed the parties’ submissions in this matter, the Board is not persuaded that this application should be disposed of without a consultation. The intervenor and the union may, however, raise their preliminary objection to this application on the ground of delay at the outset of the consultation. The parties should be prepared to lead evidence, if necessary, on the issues raised in this application including, but not limited to, the applicant’s allegation that he was “ineffective in proceeding with his complaint because of his poor mental health”.
3. This matter is referred to the Registrar to be set down for a consultation.
“Caroline Rowan”
for the Board
