KENITSH COUNCIL ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT 2013

COMMISSIONER LEE	MELBOURNE, 26 JULY 2013

Application for approval of the Kentish Council Enterprise Agreement 2013.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Kentish Council Enterprise Agreement 2013 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by the Kentish Council. The agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

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

[4] The Australian Municipal, Administrative, Clerical and Services Union, being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. In accordance with s.202(2) of the Act, I note that the Agreement covers the organisation.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 2 August 2013. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 June 2014.
