My question is directed to Senator Abetz, the minister representing the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations. Is the minister aware of a report released today by the Australian Mines and Metals Association which identifies 15 reasons why common-law contracts are inferior to Australian workplace agreements? Does the government agree with the report’s finding that preferring common-law contracts to AWAs would be bad for workers and bad for the economy? Is the minister aware of any alternative policies?
