TASMANIAN INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION Industrial Relations Act 1984 Australian Workers' Union, Tasmania Branch FERTILISER INDUSTRY AWARD
Determination of award interest - approved REASONS FOR DECISION In this matter the Australian Workers' Union, Tasmania Branch, requested the Commission to determine whether or not the union had an interest in the Fertiliser Industry Award. In addressing the application, Mr Cooper, for the Union, referred to the requirements of section 63(10)(c) of the Industrial Relations Act. In this regard he tendered exhibits demonstrating that the union had members employed in the industry for which the Fertiliser Industry Award had been made; that the union's Constitution and Rules entitled it to enrol such members, and that the orderly conduct of industrial relations in this State would not be prejudiced by the granting of interest in the award. There was no opposition to the application. After hearing submissions I am satisfied that the Australian Workers' Union, Tasmania Branch has conformed with the requirements of the Act and that there is no impediment to my determining that the union has an interest in the Fertiliser Industry Award, and I decide accordingly. A copy of this decision will be forwarded to the Registrar enabling him to make the necessary amendments to the certificate of registration.
