536KU Decisions on applications for minimum standards guidelines
(1) If an application for minimum standards guidelines is made to the FWC under subsection 536KS(1), the FWC may decide to:
(a) refuse to consider the application; or
(b) make minimum standards guidelines; or
(c) not make minimum standards guidelines; or
(d) if the FWC considers it appropriate to do so, instead make a minimum standards order under subsection 536JY(1) instead, as if the application had been an application under subsection 536JZ(1) for a minimum standards order in relation to the regulated workers covered by the application under subsection 536KS(1).
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), the FWC may refuse to consider the application if it is not consistent with a direction of the President under subsection 582(4D) (prioritisation).
