Parliament Update on Rock Choppers Strike and Prosecutions
The Premier addressed the Legislative Assembly on the rock choppers dispute. A Contractors Association letter urged withdrawing prosecutions as a condition to resume work, and proposed a new tribunal outside the Industrial Disputes Act. The Premier rejected the idea, stating no promise to withdraw prosecutions was made and that adjournment would depend on workers returning. The discussion touched on the strike’s status and government control over the dispute. Also, the Pure Food Bill faced committee scrutiny over preventing misrepresentation of drug potency.
