My question is to the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations. Given that the budget forecasts that 134,000 jobs will be lost in the next 12 months and that the Reserve Bank has forecast an additional 100,000 job losses, can the minister inform the House how many jobs are forecast to be created by the government’s proposed workplace regime? Can the minister explain why she failed to mention job creation once during her hour-long address at the National Press Club yesterday?
