Alternative Title	Ex parte J C Williamson, Limited and Others
Creator Organisations	High Court of Australia
Abstract/Description	Prohibition will not lie if the tribunal sought to be prohibited could under some circumstances properly make the order which that tribunal is asked to make, although that order might be improperly made under the circumstances of the case. On an application to the Industrial Regiatrar of the Commonwealth Court of Conciliation and Arbitration to register an association as an organization under the Commonwealth Conciliation and Arbitration Act, he has authority to inquire whether the association is entitled to registration. Held, therefore, that prohibition would not lie to prohibit the Industrial Registrar from proceeding with such an application, the ground of the application for prohibition being that the association was not entitled to be registered because its members were not engaged in an industry.
