I would imagine they are aware of most of it already.
You can't dump a 70+ page agreement on the PEC and expect a recomendation in 48hrs.

Aye, but I believe even so they have to give it an official thumbs up anyway?
Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

The PEC won't simply be looking over the agreement.. They will go through everything in fine detail and then cast their votes on a vital agreement!

Not looking forward to reading it, I can tell yer. :evil/mad I feel suddenly overwhelmed by a sense of deja vu. Groundhog day, 2007 p&m all over again. We'll gain a crumb, but will have to give up the loaf. :cuppa

Yeah I agree with that. Getting the words right in the agreement? Eh? Simplifying it or making it so ambiguous that they can twist it anyway they please later?

In 48hours,a deal that has taken the best part of 4 months to negotiate?
Damm,they are good.
If they welcome advice though i would suggest turning up with a bus full of Employment Lawyers.
Not Simpson/Millar though. :chuckle

Thanks truth for the update and nice to see that they have finally agreed something

What concerns me more then anything is not the right to take industrial action if the DIm Doms decide to go about the agreement in there usual manner, then I can see we will be in a no win situation , so I am hoping that the wording is watertight that in future we will be able take industrial action if the need arises.

If the Pec votes yes for it I will look forward to reading it
