Mr PYNE (Sturt—Leader of the House and Minister for Education) (14:19): I am pleased to tell the member for La Trobe that under the Howard government there was a respect for the rule of law in the federal government. In fact, the Australian Building and Construction Commission, covering building and construction, saved the Australian economy $7.5 billion and building and construction productivity increased by 16.8 per cent after the creation of the Australian Building and Construction Commission by the now Prime Minister in the Howard government. On the other hand, the Leader of the Opposition reversed the Australian Building and Construction Commission on the instructions of his union handlers at the CFMEU. The rouge CFMEU was bought back to the cabinet table and the ABCC was abolished. The CFMEU had its seat, telling Labor how to run industrial relations. We are trying to fix that. We are trying to bring back the Australian Building and Construction Commission. We are trying to establish the Registered Organisations Commission and who is opposing those reforms? It is no other than the Leader of the Opposition, 'Union Bill', trying to oppose those reforms to stop the tough cop on the industrial beat. I withdraw that. I am happy to withdraw that. He is trying to stop the trough cop on the union beat. The SPEAKER: If I might say, the day that the word union is considered unparliamentarily would be remarkable. It is not unparliamentarily. Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: The clock will stop. Mr Dreyfus: You know very well that that was not the point of order— The SPEAKER: There is no point of order. Mr Dreyfus: that I was proposing to make. I have not given you the point of order. The SPEAKER: Well, please move it. Mr Dreyfus: The point of order was that the member should use members' proper titles in this chamber and not the point that you made. The SPEAKER: The minister has the call and will refer to people by their correct titles. Mr PYNE: I will. Only yesterday, Nigel Hadgkiss, the Fair Work Building and Construction Director, said he had identified more than 500 projects, in receipt of $50 billion in federal funding, which are at risk of running over budget and time unless legal abuses in the industry end. It pains me to say that unlawful conduct in Australia's construction industry is still a deplorable state of affairs. In this environment, Daniel Andrews, the Leader of the Opposition in Victoria, wants to rip up Victoria's building code. In spite of all the warnings from former royal commissioners and from the Fair Work Building and Construction Commission, he wants to rip up Victoria's building code and put John Setka back in charge of running Victoria—the head of the CFMEU. He went so far as to stand next to representatives of the CFMEU in 2012 when he announced that he would rip up Victoria's building code. Ms Plibersek interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Sydney will desist! Mr PYNE: He wants to bring the CFMEU back into the centre of government in Victoria and jam up the building and construction industry in Victoria, which is a vital jobs growth sector in Victoria. If you vote Labor on Saturday, you will be voting for John Setka to run Victoria again. Or, you can vote for the stable Napthine-Ryan government.
