SENIOR DEPUTY PRESIDENT O'CALLAGHAN	ADELAIDE, 19 MAY 2015

Application for termination of the Southern Region Waste Resource Authority Employee Collective Agreement 2007.

[1] On 21 April 2015 Southern Region Waste Resource Authority filed an application pursuant to Item 16, Schedule 3 of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 (“the TPCA Act”) to terminate the Southern Region Waste Resource Authority Employee Collective Agreement 2007 (“the Agreement”).

[2] The Agreement is a collective agreement-based transitional instrument which has passed its nominal expiry date.

[3] Item 16, Schedule 3 of the TPCA Act states that Subdivision D of Division 7 of Part 2-4 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (“the FW Act”) applies to applications to terminate collective agreement-based transitional instruments that have passed their nominal expiry date. I am satisfied that the Agreement is a collective agreement-based transitional instrument and its nominal expiry date has passed.

[4] In having regard to the requirements of s.226 of the FW Act and based on the material that is before me, I am satisfied that:

it is not contrary to the public interest to terminate the Agreement; and

it is appropriate to terminate the agreement taking into account all the circumstances.

[5] In accordance with s.227 of the FW Act, the termination will take effect from 19 May 2015.
