In relation to the body that looks at the codes of practice, we have been told that there is a Commonwealth representative, state and territory representatives and, then, the ACTU, the AiG and the ACCI. Are those organisations equally represented, one each from those organisations? Also, why is it that we did not have, say, the Council of Small Business of Australia represented or Independent Contractors Australia or some organisation that specifically does seek to champion the cause of small business?
