My question is to the Minister for Education, the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations and the Minister for Social Inclusion. I refer the minister to the OECD Economic Outlook, which has forecast that there will be 200,000 more Australians out of work by 2010. Is the minister aware that it has taken more than six years to reduce the number of unemployed by 200,000? What is the government’s comprehensive strategy to keep unemployment as low as it was under the coalition government?
