This chapter presents a detailed analysis of external and internal pressures for the reform of the workplace conflict resolution agencies, beginning with the Labour Court and extending to the Labour Relations Commission (LRC) and examines the wider and highly fragmented multi-agency system of workplace conflict resolution that evolved over time. The industrial relations crisis of the 1970s is shown to have contributed to the creation of the LRC by splitting the conciliation service off from the Labour Court to become the pivotal service of the LRC. The effects of changing patterns of conflict, particularly the sharp rise of individual rights mediation and adjudication are analysed, as are the effects of growing workforce diversity. The impact of the global financial crisis and of the fiscal crisis of the state and the opportunity for reform associated with the emergence of the radical ‘Mulvey-Deering’ reform proposals are examined.
