passed through Legislative Council without debate. Six minor
amendments (indicated on the copy of the Bill attached) were
made upon my motion at the Committee Stage. Among such amendments
the only amendment of material importance concerned amendment of
the definition of 'Employer' occurring in section 2 to provide
for the inclusion of Professional and Social Organisations. The
amendment resulted from suggestion made at the eleventh hour by
the Chamber of Commerce. Its effect will be to permit of registra-
tion being effected within professional and social organisations
e.g. Solicitors firms and clubs which have substantial hambers in
their employment.
