Master Builders Association of the Australian Capital Territory
(R2013/45)
MR ENRIGHT	MELBOURNE, 20 JUNE 2014
Alteration of other rules of organisation.

[1] On 19 December 2013 the Master Builders Association of the Australian Capital Territory (the organisation) lodged with the Fair Work Commission (the Commission) a notice and declaration setting out particulars of alterations to the rules of the organisation.

[2] The particulars set out alterations to rules 1, 12A, 12B, 30 and 31A of the rules of the organisation. The alterations were made for the purpose of complying with the provisions of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment Act 2012 (the Amendment Act). In particular, the alterations provide for specified disclosures, the implementation of policies relating to expenditure and the mandatory training of officers with duties that relate to the financial management of the organisation.

[3] Further information was sought from the organisation regarding the rule altering process and on 30 May 2014 a supplementary declaration was received. On the information contained in the notice, I am satisfied the alterations have been made under the rules of the organisation.

[4]        On 8 May 2014, Valdis Luks, President, gave consent, under subsection 159(2) of the

Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009, for the Delegate to make various

amendments to the alterations for the purpose of correcting typographical, clerical or formal

errors. Accordingly the following corrections have been made:

 In proposed rule 1(fa): ‘Declared Person or Body’ changed to refer to Rule 12B

instead of 14(a).

 In proposed rule 1(md): ‘Relevant remuneration’ changed to refer to 12A(a) instead of
13(a).

 In proposed rule 31A(c): ‘For the purposes of Rule 34(a)...’ changed to ‘For the

purposes of Rule 31A(a)...’

[5] In my opinion, the alterations comply with and are not contrary to the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009, the Fair Work Act 2009, modern awards and enterprise

agreements, and are not otherwise contrary to law. I certify accordingly under subsection

159(1) of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009.
