Board declined to order representation vote while timeliness of termination application remained in dispute.
The applicants applied for a declaration terminating the respondent union's bargaining rights.
The union argued the application was untimely because a collective agreement had been concluded, an issue that was the subject of a separate, ongoing unfair labour practice complaint.
The applicants and the intervener employer requested that the Board direct a representation vote and seal the ballot box pending the resolution of the timeliness issue.
The Board declined to order a vote, citing concerns about jurisdiction, employee expectations, and the potential labour relations impact of holding and later nullifying a vote.
The matter was adjourned pending the determination of the related complaint.
