Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Employment) (14:57): The ETU is conducting a dishonest campaign opposing the building code because it allows employees the ability to decide to deal with their employers directly. Senator Cameron: Mr President, a point of order on relevance: there is no building code in place under law as the minister is indicating, and he should be dealing with the current code and not a proposed code. The PRESIDENT: That is not a point of order, and it certainly does not go to direct relevance to the question that was asked. Senator ABETZ: The desperation of Senator Cameron speaks for itself. The ETU claims that the rostered days off are prohibited. This is simply false. What the ETU does not say is that, under its pattern EBA, a union delegate could veto an employee's agreement with their employer to take their RDO on another day where it suits the worker. The ETU also claims the building code bans agreements providing a day off on Christmas or Easter. This too is false. The ETU claims that industry wage rates will be banned. This, once again, is false. The ETU claims penalty rates will be lost. This, unsurprisingly, is also false. (Time expired)
