                     (c)  the manner in which wage reviews are to be conducted;

                     (d)  when wage‑setting decisions are to come into effect.

             (2)  For the purposes of performing its wage‑setting function, the AFPC may inform itself in any way it thinks appropriate, including by:

                     (a)  undertaking or commissioning research; or

                     (b)  consulting with any other person, body or organisation; or

                     (c)  monitoring and evaluating the impact of its wage‑setting decisions.

             (3)  Subsections (1) and (2) have effect subject to this Act and any regulations made under this Act.

             (4)  The AFPC's wage‑setting decisions must:
