UnionsWA Secretary Simone McGurk has responded to claims by WA Minister for Commerce Bill Marmion that the unions are ”scaremongering “ in regards to the Barnett Government’s efforts to bring in WorkChoices style laws by repeating her call for the Amendola report to be released.

“If the Minister is so concerned about voters being scared he should simply release the Amendola Report. It’s his Government’s refusal to release the report, written by a key architect of the Howard Government’s WorkChoices legislation, that has workers concerned, not our efforts to bring some transparency to the issue,” Ms McGurk said.
