TASMANIAN INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION Industrial Relations Act 1984 Tasmanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry Limited CLERICAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EMPLOYEES
Award variation - exemption from nominated superannuation fund REASONS FOR DECISION This application by the Tasmanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry Limited was for the inclusion in the Clerical and Administrative Employees (Private Sector) Award of the Market Leaders Fund for employees of the George Town Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Clinic. Ms Thomas, representing the applicant, tendered Exhibit T.1 which indicated that the chosen fund, the Market Leaders Fund, complied with the conditions set out in the Superannuation Entities (Taxation) Act 1987, formerly the Occupational Superannuation Standards Act 1987. Additionally she tendered statutory declarations which confirmed the desire of the individual employees (four in number) to direct occupational superannuation contributions made on their behalf to the Market Leaders Fund in lieu of the award nominated superannuation fund. Mrs Dowd for the Australian Municipal, Administrative, Clerical and Services Union supported the submissions made by Ms Thomas. Accordingly as the requirements of section 32(1B) of the Act have been met to the satisfaction of the Commission, the exemption from making contributions into the award nominated occupational superannuation fund is granted in favour of the Market Leaders Fund. The relevant order, operative from 18 March 1996, is attached.
