Former ACTU secretary Bill Kelty says that while the federal government has delivered some good policies in its first term of office, it lacks any plan to revive Australia’s moribund economy. Some of the areas that Kelty suggests that the government needs to take action to stimulate the economy include a revision of bank lending rules and a major shake-up of the tax system. Kelty recently told a meeting of Melbourne business leaders that Paul Keating was correct when he said the government needs a greater dose of imagination, while he has also proposed a new model of enterprise bargaining that includes guaranteed jobs in every industry in which there is a shortage.
