Application for approval of the Hanson Construction Materials Pty Ltd Agitator Drivers’

Agreement 2015.

[1]        An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the

The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been

agreement.

[2]        I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to

Agreement, 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.
