At that time it was anticipated that the new agreement would be  approved within 2 months of that date. However, in the meantime, the  National Office of the NTEU sought further negotiations on particular  matters of concern to them, and as a consequence the process leading to  the implementation of the new agreement has been delayed.<\/p>\n<p>The University has provided a final draft of the agreement to the  NTEU for their consideration and is now waiting for advice that the  National Executive of the NTEU have approved the agreement. Once this  has occurred the University will work as quickly as possible to arrange  for the provision of information to staff and for the conduct of a  ballot of staff regarding approval of the proposed agreement and then  for its submission to Fair Work Australia for approval. It appears  likely that this process will now not be finally completed until early  in the new year.<\/p>\n<p>No pay increases can be implemented until this process is complete.  However, the pay increase provided for in the proposed agreement for the  first pay period on or after 31 October 2009 will be back paid once the  agreement is approved by Fair Work Australia. Also, staff whose  employment ceases between now and the implementation of the proposed  agreement will have the anticipated pay increase included in the  calculation of their benefits and entitlements.<\/p>\n<p>The University regrets this unfortunate delay and is working as  quickly as possible to complete the approval process. Further  developments in regard to the implementation of the proposed agreement  will be reported as they arise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As announced, on 24 August 2009, the University and the NTEU concluded bargaining in relation to a proposed new enterprise agreement.
