COMMISSIONER ROBERTS	SYDNEY, 16 DECEMBER 2014

Application for approval of the Container Cargo Specialist - Transport Workers Union Fair Work Agreement 2014.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Container Cargo Specialist - Transport Workers Union Fair Work Agreement 2014 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) by Container Cargo Specialist Pty Ltd (the Company). The agreement is a single-enterprise agreement.

[4] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 of the Act as is relevant to this application for approval has been met.

[5] The Transport Workers’ Union of Australia, being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wishes to be covered by the Agreement. In accordance with s.201(2) of the Act, I note that the Agreement covers that organisation.

[6] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54 of the Act, will operate from 23 December 2014. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 June 2017.
