FURTHER DECISION

Fair Work Act 2009
s.516(2)—Application for extension of period right of entry permit
Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union
(RE2013/1684)
MR ENRIGHT	MELBOURNE, 12 DECEMBER 2013

[1]        On 8 November 2013 an application dated 7 November 2013 was lodged by the

Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) under s.516(2) of the Fair Work

Act 2009 (the Act) to extend the 3 year period of a permit to enter and inspect premises issued

to Mr Kane Pearson in matter RE2010/3822 on 19 November 2010.

[2]        On 18 November 2013 I granted an extension to the expiry date of right of entry

permit RE2010/3822 until 17 December 2013 in decision PR544433.

[3] Subsection 516(3) requires that the extension to the expiry date must not be longer than considered necessary to determine the new application RE2013/1638. I intend to ensure that the new application is given appropriate and thorough consideration, and it is my view that the new application will not be finalised by 17 December 2013.

[4]        I am satisfied that the requirements set out in paragraphs 516(2)(a) (b) and (c) of the

Act have been met.

[5] Section 516(4) is not relevant to the determination of this application because the Fair Work Commission has not requested nor required the organisation or permit holder to provide copies of records or documents, or to provide any other information, as it relates to permit RE2010/3822.

[6]        Accordingly, I grant a further extension to the expiry date of right of entry permit

RE2010/3822 until 17 January 2013.
