REASONS FOR DECISION

This was an application by the Australian Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Workers Union (Tasmanian Branch) (the Union) for a variation to be made to the Hotels, Resorts, Hospitality and Motels Award (the Award).

The application sought in particular the implementation of the second Minimum Rates Adjustment (MRA) in Division B - Motels of the Award.

The first MRA for Division B of the Award was implemented through matter T6118 of 1996 in May of 1996. The third and final MRA for Division B of the Award was to become due in May 1997.

The Union submitted an agreed draft order and requested that the variation sought operate from the first full pay period to commence on or after 6 November 1996.

The Tasmanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry confirmed its agreement to the application, the draft order and the operative date.

Both parties submitted that the approval of the application was within the Guidelines of the Commission and was not against the public interest.

I accept the submissions of the parties. The Award will be amended as agreed to operate from the first full pay period to commence on or after 6 November 1996.

An order is attached.
