Members of the Industrial Relations Society will know that submissions were last year presented on its behalf to the Parliamentary Committee considering the Labour Government’s Severance and Re-employment Bill. Those submissions appeared to be well received and therefore the Hon. J. B. Gordon, the present Minister of Labour and a member of the Committee, had no hesitation in accepting an invitation to address the society on the question of redundancy. This he did in Auckland on 11 May of this year in a prepared address, subsequently answering questions and taking part in what was at times a spirited discussion from the floor.
