Department of Social Services Enterprise Agreement 2024-2027

  1. Further to the Decision ([2024] FWCA 900) issued on 12 March 2024, an application has been made under s.218A of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act), by the Commonwealth Of Australia As Represented By The Department Of Social Services (the Applicant), to vary the Department of Social Services Enterprise Agreement 2024-2027 (the Agreement) in order to correct a number of obvious errors.

  1. The Agreement was approved with undertakings on 12 March 2024 and commenced operation on 19 March 2024.[1] The Applicant is the Employer covered by the Agreement. The Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) is also covered by the Agreement.

  1. The Applicant has provided a list of errors by way of a Form F1 dated 23 February 2024, which the Applicant submits are typographical in nature. The Applicant has also provided a revised Agreement which consolidates the variations.

  1. A copy of the changes have been provided to the Bargaining Representatives and CPSU. There has been no objection received and the CPSU supports the application.

  1. Having reviewed the list of typographical errors, it is apparent in my view that such errors would fall within the scope of s. 218A(1). Accordingly, the revised Agreement (with undertakings) is attached to this Decision.

  1. The variations will operate from the date on which the Agreement commenced operation, which is 19 March 2024.
