If the Senator from the Labour Party wants to take exception to anything I have said, he is entitled to do so but I stand in solidarity with workers who are seeing their pension rights attacked by companies. We are talking, in many instances, about workers in low-paid jobs. The vast majority of those in the retail sector are low-paid workers. We are having this discussion on the same day that one of my colleagues, Senator Quinn, is introducing a Bill to the House that would essentially criminalise workers and their unions for taking strike action.
