Application for approval of the Geelong Roofing Pty Ltd and CEPU - Plumbing Division (Vic) Plumbing Enterprise Agreement 2025

[1] Geelong Roofing Pty Ltd has made an application for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Geelong Roofing Pty Ltd and CEPU - Plumbing Division (Vic) Plumbing Enterprise Agreement 2025 (the Agreement) pursuant to s 185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] On the basis of the material contained in the application and accompanying declaration, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss 186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval has been met.

[3] The application was not lodged within 14 days after the Agreement was made. Pursuant to s 185(3)(b), in all the circumstances I consider it fair to extend the time for making the application to the date it was actually made.

[4] The Communications, Electrical, Electronic, Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia (CEPU), being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s 183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. As required by s 201(2), I note that the Agreement covers the CEPU.

[5] The Agreement was approved on 14 July 2025.
