My question is to the Prime Minister, and I refer to the working conditions of Queensland coalminers Simon and Ron. They work in the Bowen Basin, in the same job with the same boss, side-by-side on the same roster. Simon is a permanent employee but Ron is employed by a labour hire company. He is paid 20 per cent less and has none of the worker entitlements that Simon has. Can the Prime Minister advise the House how this is fair?
