I am delighted to get the question from the member for Parkes. It is a very serious issue that he raises. Unfortunately, the CFMEU, the union often at the centre of these kinds of allegations and stories, has again been in the newspapers today, this time on the front page of The Australian Financial Review, facing more allegations of intimidation and unlawful behaviour and thuggery, this time against the Sydney builder BKH Group, who are building near Sydney Airport, being investigated by Fair Work Building and Construction for their treatment of an employer, locking the gates on a building for which they had had no responsibility to do so and attacking, verbally and almost physically, officers of Fair Work Building and Construction.
