Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Employment) (14:41): As the honourable senator rightly indicates, this is a matter that regrettably seems to have been around for some time. What that tells us is that all this has occurred under Labor's Fair Work Act, under Labor's administration, nothing of which has been changed by this government. However, the Fair Work Ombudsman has been on the game here. The Fair Work Ombudsman has been pursing these matters. Indeed the Australian Labor Party are only asking questions about this matter now because of media exposure—something which the Fair Work Ombudsman has been on to for some time. One thing that we as a government have done—and it was part and parcel of our desire to modernise and bring up to date the workplace relations system—was the development of an app called PACT, Pay and Conditions Tool, that allows both workers and employers to very conveniently access from their mobile phone exactly what their entitlements are under a particular award. Senator Moore: Mr President, I raise a point of order on the direct question. I have been listening very carefully to the minister's answer and I want to know what action he has taken on the serious allegations of systemic underpayment of foreign workers. I am just not sure where the answer is going on that. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Moore. The minister was asked about what action he has taken. I think the minister is on track with the question. Senator ABETZ: Before I was aware of this situation, we were taking proactive steps to try to minimise these sorts of activities. The Labor Party set up, under their regime, the office of the Fair Work Ombudsman to police these matters. (Time expired)
