A 'greenfields' agreement is made before any employees are hired for a new project. The Commission checked that the agreement met all legal requirements, including that the union could represent the workers who would be employed, and that approving the agreement was in the public interest. The agreement will start on 25 June 2015 and expire on 17 June 2019. Standard consultation and flexibility terms required by law were also included.
