In his travels, he might like to come to Wollongong to do something for the state of the industry in the Illawarra.

I have some facts for the minister. The Illawarra is home to the biggest steel producer in Australia, and we are very proud of it. It is home to a fantastic university, which this minister cut millions of dollars out of in his last round of budget cuts. It is a place full of honest, hardworking people who just want a fair go from this government. On behalf of the thousands of people who are today looking for a job in the Illawarra, we are calling on this minister to do his job.
