An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Fulton Hogan Utilities Communications Western Australia Enterprise Agreement 2022 (the Agreement).

Subject to the undertakings referred to above, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187, 188 and 190 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.
