[2] The prescribed information was not lodged before the day prescribed by Regulation 138(3) of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Regulations 2009. That day is the day occurring 2 months before the first day when a person may, under the rules of the organisation or branch, become a candidate in the election. The Branch has requested that I allow a later day for the lodgement of the prescribed information under subsection 189(2) of the Fair Work

(Registered Organisations) Act 2009 (the Act). Having considered the reason for late

lodgement, I allow lodgement on 11 December 2013 in this instance.

[3] I am satisfied that an election for the abovenamed offices is required to be held under the rules of the organisation and, under subsection 189(3) of the Fair Work (Registered

Organisations) Act 2009, I am making arrangements for the conduct of the election by the

Australian Electoral Commission.
