Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Employment) (15:03): As I said, the Cleaning Services Guidelines have no relationship whatsoever with the dispute that is occurring currently with cleaners in Parliament House. What the Australian people want to know is where Senator Cameron and the Australian Labor Party stand in relation to the Clean Event deals that were done whilst Mr Shorten had stewardship of the Australian Workers Union and how workers' conditions were simply signed away in exchange for money for the union. These are the matters that the Australian people want to know. That is why Senator Cameron will get up on a point of order, because he does not want to hear the facts— The PRESIDENT: Pause the clock! Senator Cameron, do you have a point of order? Senator Cameron: Yes, Mr President. My point of order is on relevance. The question was specific: you can spend $80 million on a politicised royal commission but you cannot give the cleaners a pay increase. Senator Abetz has not gone to that issue. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Cameron. I remind the minister that he has 19 seconds in which to finish answering the question. Senator ABETZ: It was the so-called political royal commission that exposed Mr Shorten's dastardly deeds! And that is why they call it a 'political' royal commission. That is why Mr Caesar Melhem has had to resign. That is why Mr Shorten has now changed his declaration to the electoral commission— (Time expired) Senator Abetz: And, Mr President, I ask that further questions be placed on the Notice Paper!
