| Abstract/Citation: | Substantially amends the Trade Union Law of 1949 relating to Labour Relations Commissions in order to shorten the length of procedures. Requires the Central Labour Commission and those established in each Prefecture to set a target time, within which a conclusion must be reached. Also allows Commissions to invite parties or witnesses to appear before it, gives Commissions the authority to maintain the law and order of Commission procedures, and gives Commissions the discretion to recommend amicable settlement at any time during the procedure. |
