7  The State reference public sector modern awards objective
(1) If the FWC is required by item 4 or 6 to make a State reference public sector modern award, the modern awards objective and the minimum wages objective apply to the making of the modern award.
(2) However, in applying the modern awards objective and the minimum wages objective, the FWC must recognise:
 (a) the need to facilitate arrangements for State reference public sector employers and State reference public sector employees that are appropriately adapted to the effective administration of a State; and
 (b) that State reference public sector modern awards may provide terms and conditions tailored to reflect employment arrangements that have been developed in relation to State reference public sector employers and State reference public sector employees.
This is the State reference public sector modern awards objective.
