Conflicting Awards Prompt High Court Review in Arbitration Case
Chief Judge Dethbridge heard argument on whether the Federal Arbitration Act provisions apply to the Accident Underwriters Association of New South Wales and the Australian Insurance Staff Federation. The Federation argued it should not be party to a common rule award that could exclude nonmembers from seeking better terms at a State tribunal. The court noted potential disruption if interrelated employers outside the parties operate under different regimes. The judge proposed referring the matter to the High Court to clarify the Act’s reach and the precedent set by prior cases such as the Cinema Case of 1995 and the Whybrow decision.
