My question is to the Minister for Industrial Relations. Persa is a pre-press operator who has worked at Ovato's Clayton site for 30 years. Like 300 of her fellow workers, she will be made redundant before Christmas. Persa won't get the money she's owed, and she'll have to wait until next year to receive any funds through the Fair Entitlements Guarantee. Minister, why is your government congratulating itself and using marketing slogans when workers like Persa are left out in the cold by this unscrupulous conduct?
