Please download the Notice of Extension Application here to read it in full:
The notice provides the reasons for the extension, a proposed timeline for the additional year, and instructions on how to submit comments in support or opposition to the extension.
CUPE put Local 3651 under Administration on April 5, 2023.
When an Administration will last more than a year CUPE must apply to the Ontario Labour Relations Board (OLRB) for approval.
Note: ‘Trusteeship’ and ‘Administration’ are synonyms in this context. The CUPE Constitution uses the term ‘Administration.’ The OLRB uses the term ‘Trusteeship.’
The OLRB typically grants extensions in 1-year increments. As a result the application requests an additional year. A one year extension will ensure there is time to complete the remaining work of the Administration, outlined in the Notice linked to above, without burdening the OLRB with multiple extension requests. Should the good governance goals outlined in the application be reached earlier than anticipated in the timeline, the Administrator will recommend that CUPE lift the Administration.
