Telephone bills used in hearing VANCOUVER (CP) — A union lawyer says he wants to know why the British Columbia Labur Relations Board asked B.C. Telephone Co. to turn over confidentlal information about ferry workers’ telephone accounts to the B.C, Ferry Corp. The information from monthly phone accounts is being used by ferry cor- poration lawyers in an at- tempt to prove at a iabor relations board hearing that union members organized an illegal strike. B.C. Tel handed over coples of customers’ ac- counts to the corporation lawyer following a request from the board that a company officer appear before it with the documents, Board chairman Don Munroe said B.C, Tel security officer Leo McGregor was summonsed by the board and ia on stand- by. He has not given evidence at the hearing but the documents — accounts of four union members, one of whom has been fired by the corporation — were handed over to the corporation lawyer, who distributed them to witnesses and the board during the inquiry. The overdue account of a fifth customer in Nanaimo, who apparently is unrelated to the ferry corporation and union dispute, was inad- vertently included along with the account of one of the ferry workers, Munroe said the con- fidential information would not be sent to the other party in the hearing unless the union had specifically requested it, John Brewln, lawyer for the 2,700-member B.C. Ferry and Marine Workera Union, sald “it is offensive for B.C. Tel to be releasing these bills, No subpoena has been produced. And the cor- poration didn't ce any witnesses from the telephone company,” MeGregor, who sald he was acting on company lega advice, denied knowledge of the exposure of the fifth customer's account but sald it was possible the microfilm ane jmbnvaent document was cut far enough down to include the next phone number account on the film. Brewin sald following the hearing he will be discussing the issue with union officials, who should demand changes in B.C, Tel policy and labor relations board practices regarding the release of confidential information.
