The Albanese government could be forced to forgive the ACT’s $100 million public housing deficit if it wants to secure key industrial relations changes.

that include the introduction of multi-employer bargaining and the abolition of the construction industry watchdog, the Australian Building and Construction Commission.understands the government plans to introduce legislation for its industrial relations overhaul next week, the same week it delivers its first budget.Negotiations with business groups over multi-employer bargaining ended last week and the groups are in the dark as to the final details.

One stakeholder, who asked not to be named, said businesses regarded it as not much better than protected strike action as both enabled business “to be gamed”.While the legislation is guaranteed passage through the lower house where Labor has the numbers, the government will need the support of independent ACT Senator David Pocock when the bills reach the Senate, presumably in November.

“I’m not Finance Minister for the ACT – as much as at times I would like to be – I’m Finance Minister of the country and I don’t think it’s right to waive debts for the price of a vote on the Senate floor, which is how it’s happened in the past,” Senator Gallagher said last week.
