COMMISSIONER CARGILL	SYDNEY, 31 MARCH 2015

Application for approval of the Essential Media Communications Agreement 2014.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Essential Media Communications Agreement 2014 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) by the Essential Media Communications. The Agreement is a single-enterprise agreement.

[2] The Agreement does contain a consultation term, however, it is not a consultation term that fully complies with s205 of the Act. Consequently the model consultation term is taken to be a term of the Agreement.

[3] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[4] The Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. In accordance with s.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisation.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 7 April 2015. The nominal expiry date is 30 June 2018.
