[3] On 13 August 2014, the Fair Work Commission wrote the AMWU seeking confirmation that the Food and Confectionery Division National Conference had approved the alterations subsequent to them being made by the National Conference in accordance with rule 6.1A of the rules of the AMWU. On 15 August 2014, the AMWU filed a further declaration made by Mr Paul Bastian, National Secretary of the AMWU, on 14 August 2014 which confirmed that the Food and Confectionery Division National Conference validly approved the alterations by a majority vote on 13 May 2014.

agreements, and are not otherwise contrary to law. I certify accordingly under subsection
