Application for approval of the Balfours Bakery Pty Ltd Agreement 2015.

[1]        An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the

Balfours Bakery Pty Ltd Agreement 2015 (the Agreement). The application was made

pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Balfours Bakery

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. The Agreement does not cover all of the

employees of the employer, however, taking into account the factors in Section 186(3) and

(3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.

[3]        Pursuant to s.205(2) of the Act, the model consultation term prescribed by the Fair

Work Regulations 2009 is taken to be a term of the Agreement.

[4]        The United Voice being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given

notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. In accordance with

s.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisation.
