BEFORE: Harry Freedman, Vice‑Chair.
DECISION OF THE BOARD; November 15, 2000
1The Chair of the Board authorized me to sit alone to hear and determine this matter pursuant to section 110(14)(a) of the Act.
2No statement of desire to make representations has been filed with the Board within the time fixed under Rule 62 of the Board's Rules of Procedure following the taking of the representation vote pursuant to the Board's direction of February 4, 2000.
3On the taking of the representation vote directed by the Board, not more than fifty per cent of the ballots cast by employees in the bargaining unit were cast in favour of the applicant.
4The application is therefore dismissed.
5The Board will not consider another application for certification by the applicant, the designated employee bargaining agency of which the applicant is an affiliated bargaining agent, or the affiliated bargaining agents, as the bargaining agent of the employees in the bargaining unit until one year elapses from the date of this decision.
6The Registrar will destroy the ballots cast in the representation vote taken in this matter following the expiration of 30 days from the date of this decision unless a statement requesting that the ballots should not be destroyed is received by the Board from one of the parties before the expiration of such 30 day period.
7The responding party is directed to post copies of this decision immediately, adjacent to the "Notice of Vote and of Meeting" posted previously. These copies must remain posted for a period of 30 days.
“Harry Freedman”
for the Board
