Note: The consequence of an intractable bargaining declaration being made in relation to the agreement is that the FWC may, in certain circumstances, make an intractable bargaining workplace determination under section 269 in relation to the agreement.
(2) An application for an intractable bargaining declaration must not be made in relation to a proposed multi - enterprise agreement unless a supported bargaining authorisation or single interest employer authorisation is in operation in relation to the agreement.
