DEPUTY PRESIDENT SAUNDERS	NEWCASTLE, 23 SEPTEMBER 2019

Application for approval of the Core Plumbing Group Pty Ltd Enterprise Agreement 2019-2022.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Core Plumbing Group Pty Ltd Enterprise Agreement 2019-2022 (Agreement). The application was made pursuant to section 185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Act). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] The Employer has provided written undertakings (Undertakings). A copy of the Undertakings is attached in Annexure A to this decision. I am satisfied that the effect of accepting the Undertakings is not likely to:

(a) cause financial detriment to any employee covered by the Agreement; or

(b) result in substantial changes to the Agreement.

[3] The views of each person who the Fair Work Commission knows is a bargaining representative for the Agreement have been sought in relation to the Undertakings.

[4] Pursuant to subsection 190(3) of the Act, I accept the Undertakings. The Undertakings are taken to be a term of the Agreement.

[5] Subject to the Undertakings, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of sections 186, 187, 188 and 190 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[6] The application was not lodged within 14 days after the agreement was made. Pursuant to subsection 185(3)(b) of the Act, in all the circumstances I consider it fair to extend the time for making the application to the date it was actually made.

[7] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with section 54 of the Act, will operate from 30 September 2019. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 April 2022.
