COMMISSIONER ROE	MELBOURNE, 23 MAY 2016

Application for approval of the Mildura Rural City Council Enterprise Agreement Number 8, 2015.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Mildura Rural City Council Enterprise Agreement Number 8, 2015 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Mildura Rural City 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. The Agreement does not cover all of the employees of the employer, however, taking into account the factors in Section 186(3) and (3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.

[3] The Australian Municipal, Administrative, Clerical and Services Union and the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation being bargaining representatives for the Agreement, have given notice under s.183 of the Act that they want the Agreement to cover them. In accordance with s.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisations.

[4] The Agreement was approved on 23 May 2016 and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 30 May 2016. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 24 February 2020.
