| Summary | Read the public statement issued by the Australian NCP concluding this specific instance - 8 June 2011 In October 2010, the Australian NCP received a request for review from the Australian Construction, Forestry, Mining, Energy Union (CFMEU) alleging that XSTRATA Coal Pty Ltd (XSTRATA) had breached the employment and competition provisions of the Guidelines. The NCP met separately with each of the parties and offered its good offices to bring the parties together to explore resolution of issues at hand, possibly through mediation. CFMEU expressed its willingness to engage in a mediation process however XSTRATA did not see any value in engaging in a mediation process through the ANCP, however was willing to engage with the CFMEU at the enterprise level. As the NCP was unable to bring the parties together to address the alleged breaches raised by the notifier, the specific instance was concluded without resolution. |
