Abstract

Appeal tribunals to deal with promotion and disciplinary appeals for Crown employees in N.S.W. have caused difficulties and industrial relations problems almost continuously since 1971. They were the subject of recent election promises and the principal union (the Public Service Association) has decided to press for reforms. By examining events in N.S.W. and by looking briefly at legislation elsewhere it seems possible to identify some features of these tribunals which are important to their proper functioning. Of particular signifi cance are the criteria for selection of a chairman, procedure before the tribunal including the right to representation of appellants and the choice of a "judicial" or a "committee" format. A model is suggested which might meet the most important objections of employers and employees.
