You still have not answered my question. If you go to page 14 of your bill, clause 33 has a note. That note says:
In considering the prevailing pay and conditions within the relevant 25 industry for equivalent work, the FWC may have regard to the 26 prevailing pay and conditions in the relevant geographical area.
Other than that broad aspect, what is the definition of 'prevailing pay and conditions'? Is it the highest pay and conditions that apply in the region? Is it the lowest pay and conditions that apply in the region? Is it some arbitrated outcome that the commission will come to?
