I just wish—as Senator O'Sullivan continues to interject in a very stupid manner, as is normally his way—that he actually does think about what this government is doing. Actually, as someone who has many people employed in many companies and with a myriad of trusts that he operates, he should think about workers now and again instead of his own back pocket, his own wallet. He should actually think about his workers and he should think about decent health and safety when it comes to workers instead of his profit. He should think about ensuring that workers can come to work and go home safely.

We do not trust this government. We certainly do not trust the doormats of the National Party to do anything to support the working people in this country or to support regional people. On that basis we oppose this bill. (Time expired)
