COMMISSIONER RYAN	MELBOURNE, 2 MARCH 2015

Application for approval of the Mills Ormiston Rubber Pty Limited & National Union of Workers Enterprise Agreement 2014.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Mills Ormiston Rubber Pty Limited & National Union of Workers Enterprise Agreement 2014 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) and was made by National Union of Workers (NUW). The agreement is a single-enterprise agreement.

[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[3] The National Union of Workers, being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. As required by s.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisation.

[4] The application was not lodged within 14 days after the agreement was made. The Applicant requested an extension of time. 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.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54(1), will operate from 9 March 2015. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 28 February 2017.
