SenateWednesday 27 August 2025

Fair Work Amendment (Protecting Penalty and Overtime Rates) Bill 2025

Senator WATT (Queensland—Minister for the Environment and Water) (11:09): As the senator would understand, the usual practice, when it comes to legislation, is to consult representative bodies, who then consult their members. So I would imagine that groups like COSBOA and ACCI, among others, would have consulted their membership, which, in those cases, would have included small business.
