COMMISSIONER LEE	MELBOURNE, 30 APRIL 2015

Application for approval of the Transpacific Industrial Solutions Newman Operators Enterprise Agreement 2014.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Transpacific Industrial Solutions Newman Operators Enterprise Agreement 2014 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Transpacific Industries Pty Ltd. 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.

[3] The application was not lodged within 14 days after the agreement was made. Pursuant to s.185(3)(b), in all the circumstances I consider it fair to extend the time for making the application to the date it was actually made.

[4] Pursuant to s.205(2) of the Act, the model consultation term prescribed by the Fair Work Regulations 2009 is taken to be a term of the Agreement.

[5] The Transport Workers’ Union of Australia being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. In accordance with s.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisation.

[6]
The Agreement was approved on 30 April 2015 and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 7 May 2015. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 June 2017.
