CATHOLIC SECTOR - CHAPTER BRIEFING No. 19 Colleagues An error has been made by the Australian Electoral Commission in the ‘Notice’ which they forwarded to employees at your school regarding the protected action ballot. There will be only one question (dealing with the types of protected industrial action to be considered by employees) on the ballot paper, not multiple questions. Consequently, for employees employed as teachers, there will be one question which identifies three possible forms of protected industrial action. For employees other than teachers, there will be one question which identifies two possible forms of protected industrial action. Obviously this error was outside of the control of your Union. However, we request that this information be conveyed to all staff. Kind regards
Paul Giles Assistant Secretary
