BEFORE: Marilyn Silverman, Vice-Chair.
DECISION OF THE BOARD; August 27, 2001
1This is an application under section 74 of the Labour Relations Act, 1995 (the “Act”).
2By letter dated August 27, 2001 counsel for the responding party requests that the Board dismiss this application without a hearing based on its assertion that the applicant’s employment relations fall under federal jurisdiction.
3The applicant shall have ten (10) days from the date of this decision to make submissions in response to the position set forth by the responding party as to how the Board has jurisdiction to consider this application and why it should not be dismissed on the basis that the applicant’s employment relations are federally regulated. Upon receipt of those submissions the Board will determine how next to proceed. The responding party need not respond to these submissions unless requested to do so by the Board.
4I remain seized to deal with the submissions received pursuant to this decision.
“Marilyn Silverman”
