Senator DUNIAM (Tasmania—Assistant Minister for Forestry and Fisheries and Assistant Minister for Regional Tourism) (16:09): I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator DUNIAM: The government notes that this motion does not acknowledge the vital role played by the Fair Work Ombudsman as the primary workplace regulator. Given that the ombudsman has either taken or is continuing to take real action in relation to each of the matters mentioned in the motion, including the $7.8 million worth of underpayments of staff of the MAdE Establishment group, this was no doubt an oversight. The government is hopeful that the Labor Party's desire for yet another inquiry into this issue does not prevent them from supporting the government in taking real action in the meantime, such as through our forthcoming legislation to criminalise wage theft.
