# §1207.3. Compensation of neutrals.

- (a) **Neutrals appointed by the National Mediation Board.** All neutral persons appointed by the National Mediation Board under the provisions of § [1207.1 (b)](/cfr/29/1207.1.md?p=b) and [(c)](/cfr/29/1207.1.md?p=c) will be compensated by the Mediation Board in accordance with legislative authority. Certificates of appointment will be issued by the Mediation Board in each instance.
- (b) **Neutrals selected by the parties.**
  - (1) In cases where the party members of a PL Board created under Public Law 89-456 mutually agree upon a neutral person to be a member of the Board, the party members will jointly so notify the Mediation Board, which Board will then issue a certificate of appointment to the neutral and arrange to compensate him as under [paragraph (a)](#a) of this section.
  - (2) The same procedure will apply in cases where carrier and employee representatives are unable to agree upon the establishment and jurisdiction of a PL Board, and mutually agree upon a procedural neutral person to sit with them as a member and determine such issues.
