Julia Gillard (Lalor, Australian Labor Party, Deputy Leader of the Opposition) Share this | Hansard source

Thank you very much, Mr Deputy Speaker. To conclude, I move:

That all words after ‘That’ be omitted with a view to substituting the following words: ‘whilst not declining to give the bill a second reading, the House:

(1)

condemns the Government’s:

(a)

failure to ensure fairness at work and fairness beyond work through its inherently unfair Work Choices laws; and

(b)

failure to provide proper protections for important Australian national public holidays like Anzac Day; and

(2)

further condemns the adverse impacts these unfair laws have had on working Australians, their families and the wider Australian community’.
