The Union submitted that the application was within the Guidelines of the Commission and its approval was not against the public interest. The Union also requested that the fourth MRA increase be made to commence from the first full pay period on or after 1 November 1996. The Tasmanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (the Chamber) advised its agreement to the application and the draft order and confirmed that the amounts claimed were those agreed to in the original schedule for implementation. The Chamber submitted also that the granting of the application was within the Guidelines of the Commission and was not against the public interest. I accept the submissions of the parties.
