Request for reconsideration of preliminary evidentiary ruling in jurisdictional dispute dismissed.
The respondent Labourers Union requested reconsideration of a preliminary evidentiary ruling made by the Board in a jurisdictional dispute.
The ruling limited the scope of evidence regarding area and employer practice to specific types of boiler demolition.
The Labourers argued the ruling was made by a pre-hearing panel without jurisdiction and violated natural justice by pre-determining relevance.
The Board dismissed the request, finding that the panel was properly constituted to hear the preliminary issue, sufficient notice was given, and the request merely sought to reargue matters already considered without introducing new evidence.
Board varied previous decision to clarify collective agreement is only void in the ICI sector.
The union requested that the Board reconsider its previous decision which declared a collective agreement null and void.
The union argued the Board intended to declare the agreement null and void only insofar as it applied to the industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) sector of the construction industry.
The Board granted the request and varied its decision to clarify that the collective agreement is unlawful and null and void only in the ICI sector.
