[1] An application has been made for approval of a variation to the BITU-MILL SERVICES PTY LTD (ASPHALT DIVISION) A.W.U VICTORIA ASPHALT AGREEMENT 2015 TO 201 (the Agreement).

I am satisfied that the undertakings will not cause financial detriment to any employee covered by the Agreement and that the undertakings will not result in substantial changes to the Agreement.
