because
it was important to look at the
philosophies
prevalent
in
the
different
countries. The rigidity of Irish workers to
uphold pickets at all cost had only been
rebuffed in the course of the maintenance
strike in 1969.
(3) There was a danger that the averments in
affidavits might often be
inaccurate, and
consequently
false.
In
1969, The
Irish
Congress of Trade Unions had passed a
resolution to the effect that injunctions should
not be granted on the basis of affidavits alone.
(4)
It was inevitable, particularly in cases of
strikes of short duration,
that
the strike
concerned might be unofficial in the first
instance, as the ordinary members of the
union might not agree with the executive.

INTERNATIONAL LEGAL
CONFERENCE ON
THE EXPANSION
OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
The British
Institute
of
International
and
Comparative Law propose to sponsor and organise
in Dublin an international legal conference on
the Expansion of the European Communities on
October 1, 2, 3 and 4, 1970. The conference would
be concerned with the examination in depth of a
number of legal problems of especial interest to
the applicant countries. The participants, mainly
lawyers, would
be drawn
substantially
from
Scandinavia,
the United Kingdom
and
the
Republic of Ireland but there would be a number
of representatives from the Six Common Market
Countries and from the institutions of the Com
munities.
The
Institute has sponsored a number of
International conferences
in recent years, and
has been actively engaged in the, study of the
law of the European Communities for over a
decade. The publications
resulting from such
meetings have been foremost in furthering an
understanding
of
Community
law
amongst
practising
lawyers
and
those
in government,
industry and the universities in each country.
A major conference on
the principal
legal
problems confronting the candidate countries for
admission to the Communities will be timely in
the early autumn of 1970 and the choice of Dublin
as a venue would be regarded as most appropriate
by
lawyers
in
the
candidate,
countries
and
those within the Communities.
The working sessions of the conference are to
be divided up to consider in depth the following
themes:
1.
The Courts and Community Law.
The
impact
of Community Law
upon
Municipal Courts and
their resources
for
dealing with it.
2.
Community Legislation.
Community decision-making, its parliamen-
