My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Senate submission by Mr Bill Milby of North Star Cruises in Western Australia, which states that a senior infrastructure department official told him the company should:

… consider taking our ship ‘True North’ off the Australian Shipping Register, re register the ship in a suitable foreign country, lay off our Australian crew and hire a cheaper foreign crew.

How can Australians possibly trust this Prime Minister and this government with jobs?
