0749-00-G Carpenters and Allied Workers Local 27, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, Applicant v. Vanbots Construction Corporation and Rambots Construction Corporation, Responding Parties.
BEFORE: Inge M. Stamp, Vice-Chair, and Board Members J. G. Knight and G. McMenemy.
DECISION OF THE BOARD; September 6, 2000
[1]. These are related applications. Board File No. 0749-00-G is a referral of grievance pursuant to section 133 of the Labour Relations Act, 1995 (the “Act”). Board File No. 0748-00-R is an application under section 69 and/or subsection 1(4) of the Act alleging the responding parties are one employer for the purposes of the Act or a sales of a business took place from Vanbots Construction Corporation (“Vanbots”) to Rambots Construction Corporation (“Rambots).
[2]. By decision of the Board (differently constituted) dated June 23, 2000 the applications were withdrawn, at the request of the applicant, as against the responding party Technisigns Inc (“Technisigns”). The title of these proceedings is amended accordingly.
[3]. By letter dated September 1, 2000 the applicant requests production of documents from the responding parties pursuant to sections 1(5) and 69(13) of the Act. The applicant’s letter refers to the responding parties Vanbots, Rambots and Technisigns. Given the applicant’s request of June 20, 2000 to withdraw both the grievance and the application under section 69/1(4) as against Technisigns (and the Board’s decision of June 23, 2000) the Board assumes the applicant did not intend to include Technisigns as one of the responding parties. In any event since they are no longer a named party to the proceeding the Board is without jurisdiction to direct production of documents vis-à-vis Technisigns.
[4]. The Board has reviewed the list of documents requested by the applicant. These documents and/or information are arguable relevant to the proceedings under
sections 69/1(4). The Board, pursuant to sections1(5) and 69(13), directs the responding parties Vanbots and Rambots to produce and/or make available on or before
September 25, 2000, to the applicant the documents and information listed in the September 1 letter.
