COMMISSIONER MCKENNA	SYDNEY, 8 MAY 2015

Application for approval of the GTNT Enterprise Agreement 2015 to 2017.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the GTNT Enterprise Agreement 2015 to 2017 (“the Agreement”). The application has been made by Top End Training Group Pty Ltd T/A GTNT (“the applicant”) pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (“the Act”). The Agreement is a single-enterprise agreement.

[2] The applicant has provided written undertakings addressing miscellaneous matters and the views of the individual employee bargaining representatives were sought in relation to those undertakings. With the provision of those undertakings, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 of the Act relevant to this application for approval has been met. A copy of the undertakings is attached to this decision and marked “Annexure A”. I note that, under s.191 of the Act, the undertakings are taken to be terms of the Agreement.

[3] As the Agreement does not contain a complying consultation term, I note that the model consultation term is taken to be a term of the Agreement.

[4] The Agreement also contains certain arrangements concerning long service leave which would, as discussed in the proceedings, continue to be subject to the Long Service Leave Act (NT) although the Agreement purports to provide otherwise.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54 of the Act, will operate from seven days after the issuing of this decision. The nominal expiry date is 31 December 2017.
