Which of the following statements about the adjudication of industrial disputes under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 is correct?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Under s.53(6) of the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, any concerned party may apply to the Tribunal in the matters not settled by the conciliation officer within ninety days from the date on which the failure report under s.53(4) is received. A government reference is therefore not required for adjudication by an Industrial Tribunal (contrast s.10, Industrial Disputes Act, 1947). The Code has no Labour Courts; disputes of national importance go to a National Industrial Tribunal under s.54. Forty-five days is the period within which the conciliation officer must send his report (s.53(5)), not the period for applying to the Tribunal.
