Court considers termination of a DOCA on public interest grounds

Pravin Aathreya and Saara Stenberg of Johnson Winter Slattery review a recent decision in which the Commissioner’s challenge to a DOCA was entirely unsuccessful, with the Court making it clear that it was against the public interest to wind up solvent companies (the companies had been trading solvently for more than a year after the DOCA was adopted) and make in excess of 80 employees redundant.
