The Industrial Registrar of One Federal Arbitration Court, Mr Taylor, refused the Building Workers' Industrial Union registration for the third time.

Two prior re registrations were rejected, with objections upheld by two employers' groups and four retained committees including the Ship Joiners' Society, the port Workers' Union and the Society.
