I thank the member for Kennedy for his question. Having been here for 24 years, like the member for Kennedy, I have learnt to be able to interpret much of what the member for Kennedy has said over that almost quarter of a century. I think the gist of the member for Kennedy's question is that governments should put the conditions, the safety and the pay of workers foremost in their decision-making process. The second part of his question was that the CFMEU is the bulwark of our protections in terms of these kinds of issues in the workplace.
