Where ships discharge any cargo which by reason of its nature or condition comes within any provision of any Waterfront Industry Tribunal’s orders or any agreement made with the representatives of the New Zealand Waterside Workers Unions at the various ports whether or not such agreement is in substitution for any such order, and so requires the payment of a special rate exceeding the ruling rates of pay for the handling of such cargo, or for work deemed to be incidental to the discharging of the cargo, then in such cases, in addition to the rates that would be payable had they not been subject to such provisions or agreement as aforesaid, the ship or port container terminal shall be charged in respect of all employees engaged by the Corporation and entitled to such rate exceeding the ruling rate of pay the extra cost incurred by the Corporation for the shunting, supervising, or any other duties incidental to the handling of such cargo.

In every case where the shipowner does not have an office at the port where extra cost as referred to in clause 68.3 is incurred, it shall be a condition precedent to the work performed by the Corporation’s employees, incidental to the handling of such cargo that the ship’s agent shall be deemed to have agreed with the Corporation for the payment by such agent of such additional cost.
