I move:

That this bill be now read a second time.

The Workplace Relations Legislation Amendment (Independent Contractors) Bill 2006 makes a number of necessary amendments to the Workplace Relations Act 1996 to implement the government’s commitment to protect independent contractors.

I commend the bill to the House.

Debate (on motion by Mr Stephen Smith) adjourned.
