COMMISSIONER LEE	MELBOURNE, 29 OCTOBER 2020

Application for approval of the AMWU and the RAGONA ENGINEERING AUSTRALIA Collective Bargaining Workshop Agreement 2020.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the AMWU and the RAGONA ENGINEERING AUSTRALIA Collective Bargaining Workshop Agreement 2020 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by The Trustee for the Ragon a Family Trust (ACN 108 448 120) & The Trustee for D & R Ragona Family Trust (ACN 110 34 1887) T/A Ragona Engineering Australia (ABN 99 531 336 736) T/A Ragona Engineering Australia. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.
