Two industry superannuation schemes for electricians and transport workers are in talks to merge into an $11 billion fund, but a factional battle to control one of the linked unions could affect who gets to decide where the money ends up.
ETU NSW secretary Justin Page is expected by union insiders to formally resign as soon as Monday night.But the negotiations between the two funds, both linked to right-aligned union branches, face a potential hurdle as left wing unionists close in on control of the Electrical Trades Union NSW branch.“A merger has been part of our strategy for many years,” the spokeswoman said. “We have an obligation to our members, just like every other fund, to consider the benefits of potential mergers.
Other divisions of the union, including the Victorian branch, direct their members’ retirement funds to the giant $60 billion construction superannuation fund Cbus.Several union figures familiar with the talks, who declined to speak on record because they were not authorised to speak publicly, said there was a fear Mr Hicks would not favour the TWUSUPER-EISS merger.An ETU spokesman said the union would not comment on internal deliberations.
