when a mediator arbitrates it just means the the mediator suggests an option for resolving the conflict.. it is not compulsory.. when the issue is taken to arbitration the arbitary person also suggests something this is a lil more compulsory but still not yet legally binding.. the court systems are the only legally binding result..

therefore Mz Me thinks the answer is....

p.s under the Arbitration heading in my book:

"Under arbitration, the AIRC hears both sides of a dispute and makes a legally enforceable decision"

True, but was the mediator the AIRC? Or just a random third party?

Yeah but the mediator ARBITRATES meaning that it is a legally binding decision. Even though mediators aren't supposed to arbitrate....meh....it didn't even make sense but I still don't think it's B. In the exam I put D because the q said BEFORE seeking a legally binding decision so I think that's right unless the anti-discrimination tribunal's decisions are legally binding which I don't think they are. Actually is there even such thing as an anti discrimination tribunal? I thought it was the anti discrimination BOARD??? or maybe they're two seperate things. C is way off so it's either A or D. A seems really stupid though.

look at the definition "the AIRC".....this question although talks about the mediator as arbitrating. Mediator's themselves cant make a legally binding decision unless they arbitrate in a industrial tribunal such as the AIRC. Therefore in box 2 of (b)the mediator couldn't come to a decision so therefore the Mediator himself arbitrates between the two parties to come to a decision in box 3.

if the decision cannot be made it goes to through to conciliation (where the AIRC act as the mediator) if that fails it goes to AIRC to make legally enforcable ecision.

13 C
14 C (possibly incorrect.)
19 B (incorrect. Failed to notice the part referring to the subsidiary's solvency rather than the parent company's. Dammit.)
20 B

in any case in (A) Gina wouldn't involve the union straight away without negotiating with her employer first.

That is correct. Because it was the COST OF GOODS SOLD was $150 000 from memory... though it was a little confusing the way it was set out to conclude so i just added Expenses and Net Profit together.

for 17 i personally think it is (a)... if anyone has the leading edge book that answer is word for word the 'typical grievance procedure' that is illustrated in the book. That was the only reason i put (a) over (b) because it was ultimately a toss up between the two.. only time will tell, i have had so many different opinions on the question.

also i think that 19 is (d) because the info mentioned that the audited accounts revealed that the business equipment was under valued suggesting the business used an inappropriate cut off period possibly for taxing purposes. The corporate raiding is also obvious. However this answer was also a toss up between (b) and (d)

I'd have to disgree, because i believe the answer is in fact B

The only reason that it could be interpreted as incorrect is the use of the word 'ARBITRATES'. However, arbitrates does not mean that it is a legally binding decision rather it is a form of alternative dispute resolution, which is not legal offering suggestions to help resolve the conflict.

If it had been worded has 'arbitraTOR' than it would have been incorrect. Tough one though, could go either way but i do believe that it is B
