Application to extend the default period for the Bonville Golf Resort Employee Enterprise Agreement 2010 - 2014
Introduction
Pursuant to subitem 30(4) of Sch 7 to the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 Ironhill Management Pty Ltd T/A Bonville International Golf Resort has applied to extend the default period for the Bonville Golf Resort Employee Enterprise Agreement 2010 - 2014 (the Agreement). Under subitem 30(1) the Agreement was to terminate on 6 December 2023.
The application was made, in accordance with subitem (6)(b), on the ground that it is reasonable in the circumstances to extend the default period where an enterprise agreement has been approved by the Commission under the Fair Work Act 2009 and the replacement agreement covers the same, group of employees as are covered by the Agreement. At the time this application was made the replacement agreement had not yet been approved by the Commission.
The Commission has since approved the replacement agreement.[1] The replacement agreement commenced operation on 29 January 2024. The purpose of the extension is to ensure the Agreement continued to apply for the period between the termination date of 6 December 2023 in subitem 30(1) up until the replacement enterprise agreement commenced.
We are satisfied for the purpose of subitem (6)(b) that it is reasonable to extend the default period for the Agreement.
Pursuant to item 30(6) of Sch 7 to the Transitional Act, we order that the default period for the Agreement is extended until 7 days after the approval decision of the new replacement agreement on 29 January 2024.
The Agreement is published, in accordance with subitem 30(9A)(c), on the Fair Work Commission’s website.
DEPUTY PRESIDENT
