The Commission has the statutory authority to resolve disputes as to whether an issue is an economic or a noneconomic issue as defined in N.J.S.A. 34:13A-16f(2). After the filing of a petition to initiate compulsory interest arbitration, the Commission will not exercise that authority until an award has been issued and will do so only if necessary to resolve an appeal of an interest arbitration award.
