How quickly you forget this item was at the time subject of many posts and copies of our newsletters at the time.
Do an advanced search and you will find it under Jetstar Legal action update. It included the newsletter that printed the consent orders of Justice Marshall on our legal action which are reported in the relevant legal publications for all to see, so there was no back room deals. The fact that AIPA did not raise an application at the time is why there is no reference to any position held at the time.
Bus driver your quote about the two unions coming together is something i have put publicly on these forums but again your references that AIPA are superior to AFAP is part of the reason it is unlikely to happen.
It equally does not help when faux positions are put about how successful the legal strategy of AIPA is in respect to Jetstar. The recent case was not run by either union it was a prosecution by the FWO and the reason we were mentioned is because we have actual material proof of action rather than being 'verballed'.
The final decision in this matter is usually an agreed set of facts and the real reason AIPA wasn't mentioned was nobody thought them relevant.
