REASONS FOR DECISION

The applications which were forwarded to me for determination by the President following his "Arguable Case" findings in Anomalies Conference proceedings, were listed for hearing consequential to the decision of the Full Bench in the Public Sector Structural Efficiency Adjustment State Wage Case (T.2399, T.2508, T.2511, T.2586 and T.2605 of 1990).
