COMMISSIONER YILMAZ	MELBOURNE, 3 APRIL 2019

Application for approval of the Mater Nursing and Midwifery Enterprise Agreement 2018 -2021.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Mater Nursing and Midwifery Enterprise Agreement 2018 -2021 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Mater Misericordiae Limited T/A Mater Group. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 are relevant to this application for approval and have been met. The Agreement does not cover all of the employees of the employer, however, taking into account the factors in ss.186(3) and (3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.

[3] The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation 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.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisation.

[4] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 10 April 2019. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 June 2021.
