Waterfront Preference New Federal Regulations Announced
Melbourne reports new federal regulations to decasualise waterfront work announced by Attorney General Latham. The plan aims to reduce first preference certificates toward port normals, improve regular work distribution, curb labor over-supply, and ease tensions between employers and workers. A committee will oversee implementation with government and Waterside workers represented. Licensing officers may adjust classifications and handle misconduct. The measures do not alter wage class distributions and include a right of appeal in summary court for waterside matters.
