DECISION

Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009
s.189—Arrangement for conduct of an election
Police Federation of Australia
(E2015/74)
MR ENRIGHT	MELBOURNE, 2 MARCH 2015
Arrangement for conduct of election.

[1]        On 5 February 2015 the Northern Territory Police Branch of the Police Federation of

Australia lodged with the Fair Work Commission the prescribed information in relation to an

election for the following offices:

Branch President

Branch Vice President

Branch Executive Members (5)

[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. Having considered the reason for late lodgement, I

allow lodgement on 5 February 2015 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.
