It is true, Senator McKenzie. There is no evidence to suggest that this bill or attacking workers will actually add to productivity improvements in a workplace. Having represented workers for over 30 years of my life, I can stand here today and say that workers with low-paid incomes are some of the most vulnerable people in our country. As a Labor representative, I am very proud to stand here alongside the rest of my colleagues and support workers. We should all vote against this legislation.
Debate interrupted.
