The Labour Court found no grounds to concede the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union's claim to upgrade a technical assistant post to assistant lecturer at the National College Of Art And Design (N.C.A.D.). The recommendation was signed on 5 September 1990. The union argued the worker taught print processes and performed assistant lecturer duties. The College said the role fitted the upper technical assistant grade and differed from a formal lecturing post. The Court considered the parties' oral and written submissions before declining the claim.
