WORKPLACE RELATIONS ACT 1996 - SECT 590

             (1)  The Commission may make an order that the incoming employer:

                     (a)  is not, or will not be, bound by the collective agreement; or

                     (b)  is, or will be, bound by the collective agreement, but only to the extent specified in the order.

The order must specify the day from which the order takes effect. That day must not be before the day on which the order is made or before the transfer time.

             (2)  Without limiting paragraph (1)(b), the Commission may make an order under that paragraph that the incoming employer is, or will be, bound by the collective agreement but only for the period specified in the order.

             (3)  To avoid doubt, the Commission cannot make an order under subsection (1) that would have the effect of extending the transmission period.
