PIGIRON BAN Pickets For Port Kembla Wharfs
Waterside workers in Wollongong held a meeting to announce picket action at Port Kembla wharfs as a new licensing scheme is introduced under the Transport Workers Act. Sub-committees were formed to meet proposed organizers. A six-man picket squad was posted outside the Customs office to explain the licensing requirement and no violence policy. If licences are not issued, the waterfront may be shut down and crane drivers could also strike, though the embargo currently covers only the Dalfram voyage.
