Senator DUNIAM (Tasmania—Assistant Minister for Forestry and Fisheries and Assistant Minister for Regional Tourism) (12:07): I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator DUNIAM: The government has no tolerance for exploitation in the Australian workplace. There are tough new laws, increased penalties and additional resources and strengthened investigative powers for the Fair Work Ombudsman—over $50 million and 60 new staff. We have implemented targeted changes to a number of visa programs to help farmers access workers. The National Agricultural Workforce Strategy will identify labour gaps and ways to attract, train and protect the workforce that is needed now and into the future. Labor slashed funding to the FWO by 19 per cent, or from $154 million down to $125 million; cut staff by 23 per cent; and had no policy to protect vulnerable workers.
