Abramsky FOR THE UNION Tim Hannigan Ryder Wright Blair & Holmes LLP Counsel FOR THE EMPLOYER Len Hatzis Ministry of Government Services Counsel CONFERENCE CALL May 29, 2009. 2 Decision [1]By telephone conference, the Union requested that the next hearing date, June 1, 2009, be an arbitration date during which the Employer be required to lead evidence on the issue of remedy. Having heard the submissions of the parties, it is my ruling that such a request is premature. There are a number of process issues (e.g. particulars, order of proceeding) that need to be addressed. It is my view that the June 1, 2009 date would be the appropriate time to discuss those issues and explore potential avenues/steps required to resolve this dispute. Therefore, the June 1, 2009 date will be used to mediate these issues, and further hearing dates will be scheduled as required. th Dated at Toronto this 29 day of May 2009. Randi H. Abramsky, Vice-Chair
