After subsection 186(2), you are also inserting:

(2A) If the agreement is … the FWC must be satisfied that at least some of the employees covered by the agreement were represented by an employee organisation in relation to bargaining for the agreement.

The question is an obvious question that has come from far and wide. It literally becomes 'must be satisfied that at least some of the employees'. What does that mean, literally?
