Family First support greater protection for redundancy and the issues of hours of work, breaks and those sorts of things. The intention of the Greens amendments is to strengthen that protection. Family First has two amendments coming up, and the second of those will achieve what needs to be set out in a more flexible way than what is being proposed here. For those reasons we will not support the Greens amendments but certainly we support the idea of greater protection for workers’ redundancy entitlements and their hours of work.
