COMMISSIONER ROE	MELBOURNE, 16 NOVEMBER 2015

Application for approval of the Wright’s Plant Hire Pty Ltd Civil Construction Enterprise Agreement 2015.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Wright’s Plant Hire Pty Ltd Civil Construction 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 Wright’s Plant Hire 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. 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.

[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] The Agreement was approved on 16 November 2015 and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 23 November 2015. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 31 October 2018.
