[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the AMWU and AIO Contracting Pty Ltd Metals Labour Hire Agreement 2019-2023 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by AIO Contracting Pty Ltd. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.
