Hey there everyone,
You can read submissions to the Australian senate re: inquiries on the new Fair Work Bill at: http://www.aph.gov.au/Senate/committee/eet_ctte/fair_work/submissions.htm
The submissions I found most interesting were the ones by the Sex Workers Union (which asks for sex work to become legalised to protect sex workers rights), and the one by Carers Australia (and how the Fair Work bill will affect Australia). I might post more on my thoughts about those submissions later...
NineMSN has an article on Fair Work bill here: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=736334
Here is a quote from the above article:

Here is a quote from the above article:
A consistent theme of the inquiry submissions is that the new union right of entry laws go too far, the good faith bargaining rules are too ambiguous, access to compulsory arbitration is too easy and that the laws failed to ban pattern bargaining.
The Senate inquiry is not due to report back to parliament until February 27 and Labor is hoping to have the bill proclaimed as law by Easter.
So! Any thoughts on the above quote? Could someone explain to me what pattern bargainingis, and why it should be banned?
