The parties to the hearing presented an agreed position which was reflected in Exhibit S1 tendered by Mr Strickland of the Nation Union of Workers, Tasmanian Branch.

This consent application for the final minimum rates adjustment is consistent with the Wage Fixing Principles and the agreed agenda for restructuring this award, therefore it is granted in the terms agreed to by the parties including the operative date i.e. the first full pay period to commence on or after 3 March 1993 and I decide accordingly.
