I thank the Leader of the Opposition for her question. The Watson report is an important report that was commissioned by the administrator to help him in the work that he is involved in: cleaning up the CFMEU. Of course, this report was a detailed work that clearly identified issues going from 2012 until the administrator actually took over. Mr Irving has released a detailed statement in response to the report. He will refer the report to the AFP, Victoria Police, the Fair Work Commission and other relevant law enforcement agencies and regulators. Mr Irving has said that this report had been released so authorities can take whatever enforcement action they consider appropriate as the CFMEU enters a new chapter under his leadership.
