Following a judgment concerning the interpretation of the award, the parties gave varying interpretations of that judgment an d communicated these to the pilots. In attempting to resolve this difference in interpretation the applicant submitted the dispute to the Aircrew Industries Tribunal. The Tribunal declined to deal with the matter. The applicant applied to the Court for an order that the respondent comply with the clause of the award in dispute. The applicant also applied for an order for the respondent to comply with the disputes procedure contained in the award. The court held that to enforce an obligation, the obligation itself must be clear. }{\b\f0\fs24\ul\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5836399\charrsid5836399 Justice Williamson}{\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5836399\charrsid5836399 said at page 662, which comments I adapt as material to the matter before me:-}{\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5836399 \par }\pard \ql \li0\ri0\nowidctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid5836399 {\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5836399\charrsid5836399 \par }\pard \ql \li720\ri0\nowidctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin720\itap0\pararsid2773138 {\b\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5836399 "}{\b\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5836399\charrsid5836399 ...
