My question is to the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations. Under Labor's administration of the CFMEU, whistleblowers are saying that organised crime figures have a 'stronger position, perhaps even stronger than they had 14 or 15 months ago'. We now know that the head of the Victorian CFMEU, Zach Smith, who is a member of the minister's National Construction Industry Forum and a member of the Labor Party National Executive, has had meetings approved by the administrator with misogynist thug John Setka. Does Mr Smith still sit with the minister as a member of the National Construction Industry Forum? If he does, will Mr Smith be advising the minister at the next meeting?
