Application for registration by an association of employers.

[1] The Australian Security Industry Association Ltd (ASIAL) made an application on 20 October 2009 under s.18(a) of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009 (the Act).

[2] The application was published in the Commonwealth of Australia Gazette – GN 44 on 11 November 2009. A notice of objection was filed by The Australian Industry Group (AIG) on 14 December 2009.

[3] The application was listed for a Directions hearing on 28 January 2010 and a report back on 8 March 2010. On 14 April 2010 ASIAL filed an application for leave to amended its Rules and requested a further hearing to determine the application. The matter was set down for hearing on 16 April 2010.

[4] Mr Brendan Maher and Mr Chris Delaney represented ASIAL and Mr Michael Mead represented AIG.

[5] In the hearing Mr Maher, on behalf of ASIAL, sought leave, pursuant to s.25(1) of the Act to alter the Rules of the Association.

[6] Mr Mead stated that if the application to amend the Rules was granted AIG would withdraw its objection to the registration of ASIAL.

[7] The ASIAL’s application for leave to amended its Rules subsequently granted and AIG’s objection has therefore been withdrawn.

[8] I am satisfied that all the criteria and requirements have been met and I therefore grant the application.
