Workplace Relations

My question is to the Prime Minister. Would the Prime Minister update the House on the government’s progress in delivering a new, fair and balanced workplace relations system for Australia?

Question time in both Houses of Parliament is very limited. I believe it is a great waste of limited time when parliamentarians ask a Dorthy Dixer such as this one asked by the Member for Petrie - worse still I wonder if it was written by a staff member of the Prime Minister's Department.
The member's question has not added any value to the national debate.
