I will tell you what I can guarantee, Senator, through you, Mr President. That is, workers under our system will not be subjected to the wage stripping, condition stripping Australian workplace agreements that those opposite put through whilst in government. I can guarantee that this government will proceed with its policies to implement the abolition of AWAs and the abolition of Work Choices.

So the real question is: what will the position of those opposite be? Yet again, we see that the coalition is not clear about what its policies are. The coalition is all over the shop, divided and disunited because they do not know what they believe in anymore. What they do believe in is trying to get political support.
