COMMISSIONER MCKENNA	SYDNEY, 3 MAY 2016

Application for termination of the Respite and Recreation Incorporated Enterprise Agreement 2011.

[1] On 13 April 2016, R&R Disability Services Incorporated (“the applicant”) made an application pursuant to s.225 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (“the Act”) for the termination of an enterprise agreement after its nominal expiry date, namely, the Respite and Recreation Incorporated Enterprise Agreement 2011 (AG2011/13729) (“the Agreement”).

[2] In proceedings on 19 April 2016, I advised the applicant’s representative that Commission correspondence would be provided to the applicant concerning the application, inviting the views of the employees concerning the termination. I directed that the Commission’s correspondence be emailed by the applicant to its employees, inviting them to express their views by 2.00pm on 21 April 2016. No response to the Commission’s invitation has been received in chambers from any employee. There are no employee organisations covered by the agreement.

[3] Based on the material and submissions before me, and taking into account the likely effect that the termination will have, I am satisfied it is not contrary to the public interest to terminate the Agreement and that it is appropriate to do so.

[4] The termination comes into effect today.
