Latest Position

Some staff have refused to perform 42 aspects of duties to press for the upgrading of the grade's entry qualification to degree level. BLD, in consultation with CSB, has warned staff of

management's intention to take disciplinary action against officers concerned. The staff association met the Director on 4.6.1991, and on 5.6.91 appealed to its members to withhold action immediately and restore full support to the department. Some staff have responded positively to the appeal. The

departmental management and CSB will monitor the situation.

(d) Land

Inspectors

Staff continue to

work-to-rule. Impact of the action is not

significant. But the Land Inspectors Union has reacted positively to the management's appeal to resume normal duties, and is expected to ask its members to withhold action before end of June.

To address staff's request the management is finalising with staff a

äraft submission to CSB on

the upgrading of the

grade's entry qualification to School Certificate level.
