DATED: SEPTEMBER 22, 2005 SEPTEMBER 22, 2005 SEPTEMBER 22, 2005 P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: . The Petition challenges the award of the Industrial Court dismissing the complaint. The complaint has been filed under Items 9 and 10 of Schedule IV of the MRTU & PULP Act. The union has made a grievance that the increase in food prices by 500% amounts to an unfair labour practice. According to the Union, not only, an unfair labour practice under Item 9 has been committed but also under Item 10 of Schedule IV of the Act has been committed since they are compelled to buy food stocks from the canteen at higher rates. 2. The Industrial Court has found that the prices which had been increased are not too high. Furthermore, : 2 : it has been held that there is no agreement, settlement or award fixing the prices at a particular rate and, therefore, there is nothing on record shown that the company cannot increase the prices reasonably. The Industrial Court has found that the proposed rates are reasonable and therefore permitted the company to raise the amounts and held that no unfair labour practice has been committed either under Item 9 or 10 of Schedule IV of the Act. There is no infirmity in the order. Petition rejected.
