In accordance with this intention, Mr Baker, representing the applicant organisation, tendered a draft order to vary the award and requested an operative date for the variation of the first full pay period after 12 August 1996. The relativities which had been established at the commencement of the minimum rates adjustment process were to be set out in the award and the exhibit tendered to assist the Commission contained a schedule setting out the concluding minimum rates adjustments. Ms Thomas, representing the Tasmania Chamber of Commerce and Industry Limited, confirmed the accuracy of the draft documents. She submitted that the application was in accordance with the Wage Fixing Principles and should be approved operative from the date sought. I accept the submissions of the parties in all respects and approve the draft consent order. The award will be varied accordingly with effect from the first full pay period to commence on or after 12 August 1996. The order is attached.
