Legislation to reinstate the Australian Building and Construction Commission and increase the governance standards of union officials have been blocked by the Senate twice. Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has warned that industrial relations will be a focus of the Coalition’s 2016 election campaign unless the Opposition supports its proposed reforms. Meanwhile, the Construction, Forestry, Mining & Energy Union intends to review its governance following the trade union royal commission.
