FRANCES ANNE WATKINS v METROPOLITAN PHARMACY SERVICES
Application by Frances Anne Watkins re unfair dismissal pursuant to s84 of the Industrial Relations Act 1996 DECISION EX-TEMPORE NSWIRComm255
1 In the circumstances and based on the evidence adduced by the respondent, I am comfortably satisfied that the applicant's conditions of employment were at all material times regulated by an award of the Australian Industrial Relations Commission.
2 There is sufficient authority for the proposition that this Commission, in such circumstances, has no jurisdiction to entertain the application presently before it. See, for example Moore v Newcastle City Council (1997) 77 IR 210.
3 The applicant has indicted her intention in the circumstances to initiate proceedings, appropriately if I may say so, in the Australian Industrial Relations Commission.
