14 Application of amendments—objectionable emergency management terms
Application of amendments
(1) The amended Act applies, after commencement, in relation to enterprise agreements approved, and workplace determinations made, before or after commencement.
(2) Sections 254A and 281AA of the amended Act apply in relation to a matter that is before the FWC on or after commencement, even if the matter was before the FWC before commencement.
Enterprise agreements approved before commencement—preservation of terms in accordance with amended Act
(3) If an enterprise agreement approved before commencement includes an objectionable emergency management term, a term of the agreement has effect after commencement to the extent that:
(a) the term can have effect in accordance with the amended Act; and
(b) it would not exceed the Commonwealth’s legislative power for the term so to have effect.
