The No. 1 thing is to reinstitute the Australian Building and Construction Commission, and I would invite those opposite to join us and immediately ensure that these types of activities, often with the union in cahoots with the employer, can no longer take place. Secondly, I would invite those opposite to help us implement Labor's Forward with Fairness policy and take back the right of entry laws to exactly where Labor promised they would remain. Thirdly, I would suggest that our policy that will require union officials to have photographic evidence of their identity should be supported by those opposite as well. Finally, I commend everybody in the community—workers both within the trade union movement and out of it, employers, contractors and subcontractors—to fully cooperate with our royal commission.
