PRIME MINISTER
FOR MEDIA 6 JUNE 1989
I welcome the positive response of the air traffic
controllers to the Government's offer designed to end recent
disruption at Sydney Airport and elsewhere.
It is particularly pleasing to see that the Association
unanimously determined to accept the process which I
outlined in my letter of 30 May.
I note the request of the controllers' Association seeking
my further advice regarding the co-operation of the
President of the Industrial Relations Commission in
arranging for a Full Bench hearing.
I have asked that arrangements be put in hand immediately to
seek the establishment of a Full Bench, as proposed in my
earlier letter.
