Court award gives trade advantage to Sunshine firm
McPherson Pty Ltd of Burnley and 300 workers argue an Arbitration Court award creates unequal conditions compared with rival H V McKay Pty Ltd Sunshine.

They urge the Federal Attorney General to prompt faster action, noting McKay recently expanded in bolts and belt trade.
