CEMENT WORKS (COCKBURN CEMENT LIMITED) AGREEMENT AMENDMENT BILL 2015Cement Works • January 20th, 2016
Contract Type FiledJanuary 20th, 2016The purpose of this bill is to ratify an agreement made on 20 April 2015 between the state, the Minister for Transport, the Fremantle Port Authority and Cockburn Cement Limited, which I will refer to as the “variation agreement”. This bill is necessary in order to give effect to amendments to the Cement Works (Cockburn Cement Limited) Agreement 1971, which I will refer to as the “state agreement”. The main purpose of the variation agreement is to remove Cockburn Cement’s current obligation under the state agreement to manufacture clinker at its Munster works site. To put this variation agreement into context, I will provide some background on Cockburn Cement’s operations in Western Australia and the requirement to vary the state agreement.
