I thank Mr. King for that powerful testimony. I saw a couple of people nodding when listening to it. There are real concerns about the sector. What type of employer would oppose statutory protection for employees? Surely every good employer could agree to that. This poses real questions about people that would vote against further engagements in the process. I compliment Mr. King on shining a light on both sides of the equation. Fair play to the Progressive College Network for taking a positive stand and it would be a very poor reflection on the other organisations if they fail to join the Progressive College Network and do what needs to be done for the sector.
