a term referred to in paragraph 60(5)(d) or 61(5)(d) requires or allows the Fair Work Commission to deal with a dispute about any matter arising under a determination under subsection 60(5) or 61(5); and

such a dispute arises; and

a party to the dispute applies to the Fair Work Commission to deal with the dispute;

In dealing with the dispute, the Fair Work Commission must not exercise any powers limited by the term referred to in paragraph 60(5)(d) or 61(5)(d) (as the case requires).

If, in accordance with that term, the parties to the dispute have agreed that the Fair Work Commission may arbitrate (however described) the dispute, the Fair Work Commission may do so.

the person, in dealing with the dispute, must not exercise any powers limited by the term; and

if, in accordance with the term, the parties to the dispute have agreed that the person may arbitrate (however described) the dispute—the person may do so.
