Option 1 states that Wage Boards are tripartite in nature, with representatives from workers, employers and independent members. This statement is true. Wage Boards are indeed tripartite bodies, consisting of representatives from workers, employers, and independent members. They are established to determine and fix minimum wages for various industries.

Option 2 states that except for the Wage Boards for Journalists and Non-Journalists, all the other wage boards are statutory in nature. This statement is false. All the Wage Boards, including the ones for Journalists and Non-Journalists, are statutory in nature. They are mandated by law to be established for specific industries.

Option 3 states that the Second National Commission on Labour has recommended against the utility of wage boards. This statement is not mentioned in the given answer options. Therefore, we cannot determine its accuracy based on the given information.

In conclusion, the false statement among the options provided is option 2, as all the Wage Boards, including the ones for Journalists and Non-Journalists, are statutory in nature.
