As I said previously, those on the opposite side of the chamber actually voted for this legislation. They voted for this legislation—a fairer industrial relations system. But again we see the true colours of the Liberal Party—reverting to Work Choices. Peter Costello, the architect of Work Choices, may be on his way out, but those on the opposite side of the chamber still want it back. The government’s plan is to stimulate the economy with the largest infrastructure program the country has ever seen. We talk about the Building the Education Revolution; every school in the country will be getting infrastructure. That is what we are doing. That is what the government is providing—support for jobs.
