President, I ask you: is it radical to have a government that wants to ban pay secrecy clauses in employment contracts? I think it's not. Is it radical that we have a government that wants to ensure employers have a duty to prevent sexual harassment? How radical is that? What a radical proposal to do something about sexual harassment! Is it radical to have a government that wants to make the sexual harassment dispute process fairer and more effective? How naughty and how radical of this government to want to do something about that! That's why we are doing this. It's to look after women and to look after businesses. (Time expired)
