Senator CASH (Western Australia—Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Employment and Minister for Women) (14:38): The hundreds of thousands of small businesses—and they are often forgotten about the context of the building industry—need a system that is fair and that enables them to participate, and this is currently not the case. This was highlighted by the recent Federal Circuit Court decision in which a head contractor, J Hutchinson, was fined for discrimination of the worst category. What happened was Hutchison cancelled the engagement of a tiling subcontractor because the firm did not have an enterprise agreement with the union. What our new building code will do though is protect subcontractors and small businesses from these types of practices by head contractors. Senator Cameron: Tell us about the workers that are getting killed on the job. Tell us about the Irish workers in Perth that got killed. The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Cameron. Senator CASH: It is a fact that big employers and big unions can collude together to lock out the smaller players from within the industry. Our legislation will fix this problem and empower small business and subcontractors to participate in this vital industry.
