Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to a promise made last year by the Minister, Senator Abetz, that:

No cleaner will have their wages reduced as a result of the Guidelines ceasing to apply.

What sort of minister makes cutting the wages of cleaners a priority and fails to honour promises made to low-paid workers who clean his office and the offices of his ministerial colleagues?
