Govt plans tough new legislation for construction industry Australian Broadcasting Corporation TRANSCRIPT
BARRIE CASSIDY: In terms of what you regard as the biggest problems within the industry, you have identified the construction industry and specifically, commercial construction.
Why is that so different to the housing sector?
TONY ABBOTT: Well, the commercial sector is traditionally viewed by the CFMEU as its own particular playground and the CFMEU exercises a quasi monopoly supplier of labour role and that's what makes the difference.
The CFMEU's insistence on its own power, insistence on a closed shop and its use of coercion, intimidation and violence to protect the closed shop in the commercial sector.------------------------------------------- posted 6:29 AM :: reference link ::
