The Federal Government’s bill to reinstate the Australian Building & Construction Commission was passed by the House of Representatives on 18 October 2016. The Government is negotiating with crossbenchers to pass the bill in the Senate. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says the ABCC bill and the registered organisations bill are aimed at boosting the economy rather than targeting unions. However, Coalition backbench MP Andrew Laming has questioned whether unions are still necessary.
