On 25 October 2024, Ai Group filed a submission in response to a Statement issued by Justice Hatcher, President of the Fair Work Commission (FWC), confirming the conduct of an application for a road transport contractual chain order filed by the Transport Workers' Union (TWU). This application is the first of its kind under new legislative provisions that apply to 'regulated workers' which were introduced as part of the Fair Work Legislation Amendment (Closing Loopholes (No.2)) Act 2024 (Cth). The Statement invited submissions regarding Justice Hatcher's provisional views as to how the matter should proceed to be dealt with by the FWC.
