E2025-90 DECLARATION OF RESULTS CONTESTED
Stage 2 Declaration of Results Uncontested Offices
Following the completion of board and office-bearer elections in late 2025, members who were eligible to vote in the election may request a copy of the post-election report from MGA or the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC)
The organisation acknowledges the difficult rule and accepts the AEC’s explanation behind that assessment. The organisation has commenced a review of its rules with a view to modernise the document; prior to the 2025 elections, the organisation had engaged with the Fair Work Commission to foreshadow that a review of its rules is underway. The organisation intends to adopt the Fair Work Commission’s model rules where appropriate; in the case of the identified difficult rule, the organisation is content to propose to its members and the Fair Work Commission that the identified model rule BC11.3 be adopted to address the difficulties identified. The organisation is committed to finalising the review and to seek adoption of new rules as soon as possible, which includes addressing the difficult rule identified.
