No deferral of road transport contractual chain order that is in operation

  (1)   The FWC must not make a deferral determination in relation to a road transport contractual chain order that has already come into operation.

Only one full deferral determination is permitted, etc.

  (2)   The FWC:

  (a)   may only make one full deferral determination in relation to a particular road transport contractual chain order; and

  (b)   must not make a full deferral determination in relation to a particular road transport contractual chain order if a deferral declaration (whether a full deferral declaration or a part deferral declaration) has previously been made by the Minister in relation to the road transport contractual chain order.

Note:   The Minister may make deferral declarations in relation to road transport contractual chain orders under Subdivision A of this Division.

More than one part deferral determination is permitted

  (3)   Subject to subsection   (4), the FWC may make more than one part deferral determination in relation to a particular road transport contractual chain order.

  (4)   If more than one part deferral determination or part deferral declaration is made in relation to the same road transport contractual chain order as permitted by subsection   (3) of this section or subsection   536PV(3), a later part deferral determination must not have the effect of deferring, or purporting to defer, the application of a term to any person or class of persons:

  (a)   to whom the term already applies when the later part deferral determination is made; or

  (b)   in relation to whom the application of the terms has previously been deferred.
