Dispute Settlement 1. A Party may not initiate proceedings under the general dispute settlement provisions of this Agreement regarding a refusal to grant temporary entry under this Chapter unless: (a) the matter involves a pattern of practice; and (b) the business person has exhausted the available administrative remedies regarding the particular matter. 2. The remedies referred to in subparagraph 1(b) shall be deemed to be exhausted if a final determination in the matter has not been issued by the competent authority within one year of the institution of an administrative proceeding, and the failure to issue a determination is not attributable to delay caused by the business person.
Dispute Settlement Procedures Principles a) This procedure is designed to promote the resolution of issues that arise at the lowest possible level and to provide a step-by-step process which will be accessed if the parties are genuinely unable to resolve the issue. b) At each step in the procedure, reasonable time is to be allowed for the parties to resolve the matter. The parties agree not to proceed to each next step in the procedure until the previous step has been completed. Following these procedures will ensure the dispute is resolved in the most efficient manner. c) In the event of a dispute in relation to a matter arising under this agreement, in the first instance the parties will attempt to resolve the matter at the workplace by discussions between the employee or employees concerned and the relevant supervisor and, if such discussions do not resolve the dispute, by discussions between the employee or employees concerned and more senior levels of management as appropriate. If the matter is not resolved at this level, the grievance shall be referred to the designated management representative. d) Should the matter remain unresolved at this level, the Employee, at his/her discretion, may nominate a representative to meet with the Supervisor, the designated manager,and the Consultative Committee to resolve the issue. e) A party to the dispute may appoint another person, organisation or association to accompany or represent them in relation to the dispute. f) If a dispute in relation to a matter arising under the agreement is unable to be resolved at the workplace, and all agreed steps for resolving it have been taken, the dispute may be referred to the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (the Commission) for resolution by mediation and/or conciliation. Any solution proposed by the Commission or another third party must be consistent with the Construction Code and Guidelines and relevant legislation. g) It is a term of this agreement that while the dispute resolution procedure is being conducted work shall continue normally. The circumstances that applied prior to the dispute arising shall apply until final resolution of the matter. h) Any dispute referred to the Commission under this clause should be dealt with by a member agreed by the parties at the time or, in default of agreement, a member nominated by either the head of the relevant panel or the President. i) This dispute resolution procedure does not apply to Occupational Health and Safety matters. It is expected that the Occupational Health and Safety Representatives will follow appropriate procedures in the resolution of any Health and Safety matters.
Investor-state Dispute Settlement Any dispute between an investor of one Party and the other Party in connection with an investment in the territory of the other Party shall, as far as possible, be settled amicably through negotiations between the parties to the dispute.
DISPUTE SETTLEMENT PROCEDURE A major objective of this Agreement is to eliminate lost time and/or production arising out of disputes or grievances. Disputes over any work related or industrial matter should be dealt with as close to its source as possible. Disputes over matters arising from this agreement shall be dealt with according to the following procedure. An employee or the union delegate or site xxxxxxx or Enterprise should initially submit any work related grievance and/or industrial matter to the site foreperson, supervisor or other appropriate site representative of the company or appropriate site union representative as relevant. If the matter remains unresolved the union delegate or site xxxxxxx may then submit the matter to the appropriate senior management person. Where relevant the Enterprise may submit the matter to a union official. If still not resolved the delegate or site xxxxxxx shall refer the matter to an appropriate official of the union, who shall discuss the matter with the nominated representative of the Enterprise. If still not resolved there may be discussions between the state secretary and senior management representative. Whilst the above procedures are being followed work should continue as normal. This procedure is to be followed in good faith and without unreasonable delay by any party. Should the matter remain unresolved and where the issue is within the jurisdiction of the Victorian Building Industry Disputes Board (“the Board”), either of the parties shall refer the dispute at first instance to the Board (which shall deal with the dispute in accordance with VBIA procedures and, where required, determine issues of jurisdiction). The Board’s decision will be accepted by all parties subject to the right of either party to refer the dispute to the Australian Industrial Relations Commission for conciliation and if required arbitration. The Commission’s decision will be accepted by all parties subject to legal rights of appeal. This dispute settlement procedure does not apply to health and safety issues or issues of industry, state or national significance.

Where the parties wish to seek such an amicable settlement through conciliation, the conciliation shall take place in accordance with the UNCITRAL Conciliation Rules then obtaining, or according to such other procedure as may be agreed between the parties.

Such amounts shall be applied pro rata to the reduction of the Net Investment for each Class of the Tranche Periods selected by the Class Agent for such Class. With respect to each Class, on the Termination Date for such Class and on each day thereafter, and on each day on which a Termination Event or Potential Termination Event has occurred and is continuing for such Class, the Collection Agent shall set aside and hold in trust for the applicable Class Investors for such Class (or deposit into the Collection Account if so required pursuant to Section 2.12 hereof) the Percentage Factor for such Class of all Collections received on such day and shall set aside and hold in trust for the Transferor such portion of Collections not allocated to the Class Investors. On each such Termination Date or the day on which a Termination Event or Potential Termination Event for such Class for which there is no grace period occurs, the Collection Agent shall deposit to the Administrative Agent’s account, for the benefit of the applicable Class Investors for such Class, any amounts set aside pursuant to Section 2.5 above. With respect to each Class, on the last day of each Tranche Period to occur on or after such Termination Date for such Class or during the continuance of a Termination Event or Potential Termination Event for such Class, the Collection Agent shall deposit to the Administrative Agent’s account to the extent not already so deposited, for the benefit of the Class Investors for such Class, the amounts so set aside for such Class Investors, pursuant to the second preceding sentence, but not to exceed the sum of (i) the accrued Discount (which, in the case of Discount computed by reference to the CP Rate with respect to any Class Conduit that utilizes “pool” funding, shall be determined for such purpose using the CP Rate most recently determined by the related Class Agent, multiplied by the Fluctuation Factor) for such Tranche Period (ii) the portion of the Net Investment allocated to such Tranche Period and (iii) all other Aggregate Unpaids owing to such Class Investors. On such day, the Collection Agent shall deposit to its account, from the amounts set aside for such Class, pursuant to the preceding sentence which remain after payment in full of the aforementioned amounts, the accrued Servicing Fee for such Tranche Period. If there shall be insufficient funds on deposit for the Collection Agent to distribute funds in payment in full of the aforementioned amounts, the Collection Agent shall distribute funds first, if the Transferor, Tech Data or any Affiliate of the Transferor or Tech Data is not then the Collection Agent, to the Collection Agent’s account, in payment of the Servicing Fee payable to the Collection Agent, second, in payment of all fees payable by the Transferor to the Administrative Agent or any of the Class Investors, third, in payment of the accrued Discount to each Class, fourth, in reduction of the Net Investment allocated to any Tranche Period ending on such date, fifth, in payment of all other Aggregate Unpaids owing to the Class Investors, as applicable, and sixth, if the Transferor, Tech Data or any Affiliate of the Transferor or Tech Data is the Collection Agent, to its account as Collection Agent, in payment of the Servicing Fee payable to such Person as Collection Agent. The Administrative Agent, upon its receipt of such amounts in the Administrative Agent’s account, shall distribute such amounts to the Class Investors, each as entitled thereto as set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall have insufficient funds to pay all of the above amounts in full on any such date, the Administrative Agent shall pay such amounts in the order of priority set forth above and, with respect to any such category above for which the Administrative Agent shall have insufficient funds to pay all amounts owing on such date, ratably (based on the amounts in such categories owing to such Persons) among all such Persons entitled to payment thereof.
