The WA Public Administration Committee reviewed the Labour Relations Legislation Amendment Act 1997 and Amendment (No.2) Bill 1997, focusing on the administrative effects and potential conflicts with federal laws. The report highlights disagreements between government and non-government members regarding pre-strike ballots and limited immunity for industrial action.
