[1]        An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the

Temple Christian College Inc Enterprise Agreement 2015 (the Agreement). The application

was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Temple

agreement.

[2]        The Applicant has provided written undertakings. A copy of the undertakings is

attached in Annexure A. I am satisfied that the undertakings will not cause financial detriment

to any employee covered by the Agreement and that the undertakings will not result in

substantial changes to the Agreement.

[3]        Subject to the undertakings referred to above, I am satisfied that each of the

requirements of ss.186, 187, 188 and 190 as are relevant to this application for approval have

been met. The Agreement does not cover all of the employees of the employer, however,

taking into account the factors in Section 186(3) and (3A) I am satisfied that the group of

employees was fairly chosen.

the Agreement, has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover
