DECISION

Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009
s.189—Arrangement for conduct of an election
Police Federation of Australia
(E2013/276)
MR ENRIGHT	MELBOURNE, 11 OCTOBER 2013
Arrangement for conduct of election.

[1]        On 25 September 2013 the Police Federation of Australia - Tasmania Police Branch

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

for the following offices:

Chairperson, Secretary and Branch Conference Delegates (3) for each of the following

Sub-Branches:

Eastern
Southern
Western
Northern
Officers

[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 25 September 2013 in this instance.

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.
