TERMS OF REFERENCE

1        In a decision dated March 17, 2016 (Citation 2016 PSLREB 22), I established an arbitration board in the above-cited matter.  The arbitration board was composed of Mr. Stephan Bertrand, chairperson, Mr. Joe Herbert, nominee for the bargaining agent and Ms. Kathryn Butler Malette, nominee for the employer.

2         On September 20, 2016, Mr. Bertrand informed me that he could no longer act as the chairperson on the arbitration board. This will serve to confirm that the appointment of Mr. Bertrand is hereby rescinded.  This  will also serve to confirm that pursuant to section 48(1) of the Act, I hereby establish in this matter an arbitration board composed of the following members:

Mr. John Jaworski, chairperson;

Mr. Joe Herbert; and

Ms. Kathryn Butler Malette.

3        Pursuant to section 52 of the Act, the matters in dispute on which the arbitration board shall render an arbitral award in this dispute remain those set out as outstanding in paragraph 4 of my previous decision of March 17, 2016 (Citation 2016 PSLREB 22).

September 23, 2016.

Catherine Ebbs,
Chairperson of the Public Service Labour Relations and Employment Board
