( 1 ) IN this matter the relief had been sought for in the following terms: " (A) Issue any appropriate writ order or direction directing the respondent nos. 3 to 14 to perform their duties as provided under Section 12 (4) and 12 (b) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 by submitting failure reports in the matter of pending Industrial disputes within 14 days of the commencement of the conciliation proceedings. (B) Issue any appropriate writ, order or direction directing the Respondent No. 2 to make references of the industrial disputes to the Labour Courts/industrial tribunals or National Tribunal expeditiously and within a period not exceeding two weeks from the receipt of failure report from the Conciliation officers. (C) Issue any appropriate writ, order or direction directing the Respondent No. 1 to perform their duty to review at least occasionally the working of the various labour legislations and more particularly of the Industrial Disputes act, 1947. "from time to time, this Court has issued directions to the respondents and with their co-operation certain grievances raised by the appellants have been remedied. At this stage of the proceedings a status report has also been filed before this Court on 31. 1. 2002 indicating what steps had been taken to expedite the matter by creating appropriate number of posts of Labour Officers. It is brought to our notice that a notification has been issued taking steps to amend the Industrial Disputes Act by Bill No. 5 of 2003 which would enable the workmen, who have been dismissed or where their services have been terminated, to raise the disputes themselves within reasonable time before the Labour Court or Industrial Tribunal without recourse to conciliation proceedings. It is also brought to our notice that several steps have been taken to expedite the matters before the authorities concerned. However, the learned counsel for the appellants urges that the following guidelines will have to be issued in the matters of conciliation: "a. That the notice for conciliation should indicate that only the Authorised representative of the party who is competent to make commitments/take decisions should attend the conciliation proceedings. B. That the pleadings of the parties may be completed before the case file is put up before the Conciliation Officer. In any dispute once a reference is made, the file before the Conciliation Officer. B. That the pleadings of the parties may be completed before the case file is put up before the Conciliation Officer. In any dispute once a reference is made, the file before the Conciliation Officer. Should be forwarded to the adjudicating authority and should be deemed to be pleadings before it unless a party seeks leave to furnish additional pleadings. " C. That the Conciliation Officer should not grant more than three adjournments and the reason lor the adjournment should be clearly recorded. D. That in case disputes covered under section 2a of the Act, if the conciliation is not concluded within 14 days the automatically a failure report should be given unless both parties in writing agree to continue the conciliation proceedings. E. Inspectors should be given training in Labour Law prior to their appointment so that minor disputes at their level can be resolved and such matter do not have to go into conciliation and conciliation Officers should not forward disputes for investigation in a routine manner. "it is not necessary to issue directions in the manner suggested as aforesaid, We are sure, the authorities will bear in mind the nature of the grievances in these suggested guidelines and they will take appropriate steps in the matter. With these observations, this appeal is disposed of.
