33 Clause 7, page 9, line 39, after "efficient" insert "and cost effective".

34 Clause 7, page 9, line 40, at end insert "and (iii) if classified as dock work can continue to be performed economically without any risk of the undertaking where the work is performed being rendered uneconomic with the consequent loss of employment.".

35 Clause 7, page 9, line 43, at end insert— (7A) The Board shall not so recommend if in their opinion the classification of the work would adversely affect the financial viability of the operations constituting the work.".
