shall, where there is a trade union which has been granted recognition
in the enterprise, be subject to collective bargaining between the
employer and the recognised trade union with a view to signing a
collective agreement.
(3) Where the recommendations of the Salary
Commissioner are not agreed by the trade union, the trade union
or the employer may report a labour dispute to the Commission for
conciliation or mediation or the trade union and the employer may
jointly refer the dispute to the Tribunal under section 63.
(4) Where there is no recognised trade union in the
enterprise, the employer may request the workers to exercise an
option, in writing, as to whether they wish to be governed by the
recommendations made in the report of the Salary Commissioner.
