Clause 14: Mr EVERINGHAM: I move amendment 53.24. This amendment seeks to do what we did in the last bill. Amendment agreed to. Mr EVERINGHAM: I move amendment 53.25. Prior service with the same employer is to be included in an employee's total qualifying service for long service leave accrual purposes.
