16 Security for the payment of costs
16.1 FWA may, on application, make an order directing a person to furnish security for the payment of costs in respect of a matter or part of a matter arising under Part 3-2 of the Act.
> Note FWA will not ordinarily make such an order before the conclusion of conciliation.
16.2 The security must be of such amount, and furnished at such time and in such manner and form, as FWA directs.
16.3 FWA may, on further application:
(a) reduce or increase the amount of security directed to be given; and
(b) vary the time at which, or manner or form in which, the security is to be furnished.
16.4 Without limiting any other power which FWA may exercise, if FWA directs a person to furnish security for costs in respect of a matter or part of a matter arising under Part 3-2 of the Act, it may order that the matter be:
(a) adjourned until security is furnished; or
(b) adjourned indefinitely.
