The words "the decision is unreasonable or cannot be supported having regard to the evidence" are used in section 294(2) of the Criminal Procedure Code. These words should have been used in the 11 grounds I have referred to. The wordi

Mr Newman referred to a number of cases in support of his argument that a strike \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The Trade Disputes Act does not\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  give the Minister unrestricted power to declare any strike illegal, but it does give him }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid14110820\charrsid7287038

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Under section 6(4) the Minister may by order prohibit the continuance of a strike and declare it u\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
nlawful where the trade dispute has been referred to conciliation or to a tribunal. It is to be noted that the Minister can only act after the trade dispute has been so referred. He cannot prohibit the strike but only the continuation of it.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Under section \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 8 of the Act, where there is an actual or declared strike, if the}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid4208934 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 
\insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Minister is satisfied that all practical means of reaching a settlement of the dispute through the procedure laid down in the registered agreement or the procedure under the provisions of th
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 e Act have not been exhausted he may declare the strike to be unlawful.
\par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid4208934 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 U}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
nder section 9 the Minister may also declare a strike unlawful where a dispute has been settled by agreement or by the terms of an award. (Section 10 of the Act}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid4208934 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  }{\rtlch\fcs1

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Thus the Minister's discretion is not unfettered, but is confined to instances where there is machinery to settle the dispute to which recourse should be had, or where th\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
e dispute has been settled. In my view this is in the public interest, and I find nothing unconstitutional in the provisions of the Act which provide for the}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid4208934 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 
\ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Minister to declare a strike unlawful in such circumstances.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 There remains the question whether se\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 ction 12(1) of the Act is void, as submitted by Mr Newman.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 In my view this submission can be disposed of by the axiom that, if a course of action is unlawful, it is legitimate for sanctions to be imposed on persons who induce others to take part in an unla
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 wful action. I have held that the Minister may declare a strike unlawful, from which it follows that }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid14110820\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 provision}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0

, I shall deal with points raised by Mr Newman.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Mr Newman contends that section 12(1) of the Act infringes a person's right to freedom of expression. He referred to a number of United States decisions relating to the First Amendment of the United States 
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Constitution and he contended that section 12 of the Fiji Constitution was derived from the First Amendment. The }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid4208934 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 First}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0

safety, public order, public morality or public health (section 12(2)(a) of the (Constitution).
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 If the section is not in the interests of public order, and I incline to the view that it is, it is a provision enacted for the purpose of protecting the rights\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  or freedoms }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Of more significance however is the wording of section 3 of the Constitution to which section the other sections of Chapter II are subordinate. I interpre\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 As I have already stated there can be few major strikes in Fiji which do not affect adversely the public. In a democratic society the general public have the right and freedom \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 There is no doubt in my mind that the provisions of the Trade Disputes Act are in the public interes\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The appointment made by the Minister of a Tribunal dated the 5th day of July 1977 does not sp\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
ecify the date of appointment within the body of the notice although the notice of the appointment is dated 5th July 1977. The appointment did not in my view become effective until the 8th July 1977, the date the notice of appointment was gazetted. If I a
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 m\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
 correct in this view it follows that the trade dispute could not have been referred to the Tribunal on the 5th July 1977 when the Minister purported to make an order under section 6(4) of the Act.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 If I am wrong in my view that the appointment of a Tribuna\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Mr Newman raised a number of other issues relating to the same counts which it is not now necessary to consider, but I propose to deal with the most important of them.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The second, third, eighth and ninth counts relate to counselling and encouraging an unlawful strike. The particulars of the second and third counts allege the offences were committed between the 5th and 13th July 1977.

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The eighth and ninth counts allege \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 the offenc}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid14578215 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 es were committed between the }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 
\insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 20th June and 13th July 1977.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 In respect of the first two of these counts, the evidence indicates that the second appellant addressed a number of dockworkers before the strike began on the 5th July 1977.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 There is n\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
o doubt that the second appellant when addressing dockworkers that morning counselled or encouraged the strike which did take place. In so doing he may have committed an offence under section 14(2) of the Act, a matter I have later to consider, but did he
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 commit an offence under section 12(1) of the Act?
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 At the time he addressed the men the strike had not been declared unlawful. For there to be an offence under section 12(1) of the Act the strike must have been declared unlawful by an order of the Minister.
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
 As I am of the opinion that the Minister cannot legally make an order with retrospective effect the factual position was that the strike had not been declared unlawful at that point of time. It may be that the strike was unlawful in the sense of a breach
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
of contract on the part of the strikers vis-a-vis the employer but section 12(1) of the Act is concerned with a strike "declared unlawful" under the provisions of the Act and with criminal as distinct from civil liability.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Further, the subsection refers to\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
 counselling "others" to take part in the strike and the prosecutor's interpretation of this subsection led to the amendment during the trial of a number of counts by adding the words "and the Australian and New Zealand Unions" in the particulars of the o
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 f\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 fences. Mr Newman submitted that the subsection when referring to "others" is confined to others capable of taking part in the strike, and I uphold this submission.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Section 12(1\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
) in my view is intended to cover the situation where employees who are not engaged in an unlawful strike by fellow employees are encouraged or counselled to join the strike. In my view it is no offence under section 12(1) of the Act to cause, procure, co
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 u\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 nsel, encourage, persuade or influence persons other than those who can participate in a strike to assist the strikers in any way. Whatever\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
 action the Australian and New Zealand Unions might take, and in the instant case it could and did have serious cons\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
equences for Fiji, the members of those unions are not subject to the laws of Fiji for acts done outside Fiji. Nor would another Fiji union which went on strike in sympathy be committing any offence unless and until section 10 is brought into operation. T
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 h\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 e members of that union would be taking part in their own strike but not in the unlawful strike of the other union.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 If section 12(1) had the wider interpretation sought by the prosecution, striking members of other unions would commit offences under sectio\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 I accordingly allow the appeal against conviction on\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  counts 1, 2, 3, 6, 8 and 9 which all relate to an unlawful strike.

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Grounds of appeal 12(b), 15(b), 21(b), 30(b) and 33(b) in respect of these five counts all allege that section 14(1) or (2) is void as being in conflict with the Constitution.

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
In dealing with grounds 12(c) and 12(d) relating to the fourth count, which are identical with grounds in the fifth, tenth and eleventh counts, Mr Newman put forward an argument that section 16 of the Act nullified section 14.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 He }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7876408 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 f}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 irst argued that section 16 was in conflict wit}
{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid3548232 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 h section 3 in that section 3 }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
states that a trade dispute "may" be reported whereas section 16 states that a trade dispute "shall" be reported "in accordance with the provisions of section 3 of this Ac\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 t".
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
In my view there is no conflict between the two sections. Section 3(1) is of general application and relates to any trade dispute existing or apprehended. Subsection (2) of this section sets out the matters to be specified in a report. Section}{
\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7876408 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 3 is not\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The provisions of section 3 which have to be }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid14110820\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 compli\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 ed}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 
\insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
 with are subsections (2) and (3) of section 3. Subsection (1) is clearly a declaratory and permissive provision and is replaced by 16(1)(a) which is mandatory where a strike in an essential service is contemplated.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Subsections (b) to (e) inclusive of se\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 ction 16 are not in conflict with subsections}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid3548232 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The basic difference between sections 3 and 16 is that section 3 does not seek to prevent a str\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
ike or delay it. The combined effect of sections 16 and 17 however is designed to delay a strike until the procedure set out in section 16 has been complied with and until 28 days after notice of the strike has been accepted by the}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 
\ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7876408 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Permanent Secretary has \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 elapsed.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Mr Newman also referred to sections 4, 5 and }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid3548232 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 6}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
 at some length and contended that the combined effects of these sections is that a strike is permissible in an essential service. I would agree that there is nothing in sections 4, 5 and 6, which refe\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
r only to a trade dispute, that would prohibit a strike in an essential service.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Nor does section 16 prohibit a strike, but the combined effect of sections 16 and\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  17 would make it an offence under section 14, if there was a strike involving the breaking 
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 of employees' contracts of service with the probable consequences referred to in subsection (1) of section 14, and if section 16 has not been complied with and the 28 days referred to in section 17 have not elapsed.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Subject only to elapse of the 28 days re\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 ferred to in section 17 and prior compliance with section 16, I entirely agree with Mr Newman's contention that a}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0

th the powers vested in him.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
Mr Newman's second argument on this issue is that section 16 nullifies section 14. As I understand his argument if breaking a contract of service referred to in section 14 is synonymous with a strike or embraces a strike then t
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 he sections are repugnant and the later section 16 must prevail and section 14 falls. He stated in his}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7876408 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 This argument misses the point that section 14 does not prohibit a strike nor does the breaking of a contract of service necessarily arise out of a strike. A single employee can be guilty of an offe
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
nce if he breaks his contract of service with the probable results that section 14 refers to. There could be more than one employee who broke his contract in circumstances where a strike did not arise. A strike involving cessation of work would result in 
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 b\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
reaches of contract and section 14 would apply, not because of the strike, but because of those breaches if those breaches had the consequences I have referred to. Section 16 does not prevent breaches of contract. All that section 16 and section 17 do is 
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 t\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
o delay such breaches if they arise out of a strike. If the procedure has been followed and the 28 days referred to in section 17 have elapsed an employee may with impunity cease work and thereby break his contract. In other words he can then fully partic
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 i\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 pate in a strike.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 If however the dispute is settled by agreement or arbitration, and the employees still }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7876408\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 strike}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 
\insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  and the Minister properly declares the strike unlawful, the employees could then be guilty of offences under section 12(4) i\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
f they refused to work. The ultimate result, if the law is complied with, is that the strike is at an end if the dispute is not settled by that stage; but the right to strike is not prohibited either by sections 14 or 16.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Mr Newman further argued that the \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
only allegation against the appellants was in relation to the strike and that one must construe the breach of contract of service as something quite different from failure to turn up for work.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 I cannot accept this argument. If the breach was wilful, that i\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

One of the elements of a strike as defined by section 2 of the Act is the \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
cessation of work. If the appellants who went on strike were found to have gone on strike in the period alleged, that would involve a cessation of work and breach of their contracts of service unless they gave an acceptable explanation for their absence f
\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 r\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 om work. In the instant case the appellants who went on strike did not offer any explanation.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Mr Newman criticised the Permanent Secretary's rejection of the Union's report which was given on the 17th May 1977 and belatedly accepted on the 21st June 1977. \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 
Although the Union attempted to comply with section 16 of the Act, the notice was clearly defective, and rightly rejected by the Permanent Secretary.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The notice stated the strike would be carried out in two stages. The main }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid16722433\charrsid7287038 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 strike was}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0

but as forerunner there was to be a stop work in all five ports of Fiji "soon after the expiry of the 28 days notice". This does not specify the date as required by section 16 and under that section the report is "}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 
\insrsid3548232 \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 deemed not to have been made".}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid7287038\charrsid7287038 
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 The 28 da\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0

\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 a\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 rily so; as for example in the instant case where, after seeking clarification, the Permanent Secretary accepted it some weeks later.
\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 Even if the Permanent Secretary had wrongfully rejected the report this would not have assisted the appellants. The strike\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0  on 5}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid12976449

\par \hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 I have already dealt with the first ground at some length and have found no merit in the argument raise\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 d by Mr Newman. As }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid14897275

\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 e\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0 judiced by any lack of particulars or alleged ambiguity. It was not necessary to name the members of the union who also went on strike. These grounds also fail.

However, there is no doubt that the Union executive relied very heavily on the advice of the second appellant Taniela Veitata, the Industrial Adviser of the Union, and h\hich\af0\dbch\af31505\loch\f0
