That I introduce a bill for an act to amend the Labour Hire Licensing Act 2018 in relation to the meaning of ‘labour hire services’, ‘fit and proper persons’, ‘monitoring’, ‘investigation and enforcement powers’ and ‘information sharing’ and the Workforce Inspectorate Victoria Act 2020 in relation to causing or threatening to cause detriment and for other purposes.
Motion agreed to.

Danny PEARSON (Essendon – Minister for Economic Growth and Jobs, Minister for Finance) (12:10): The bill amends Victoria’s labour hire licensing laws to give effect to recommendations 3 to 6 of the Wilson review and will also create an offence for causing detriment or threatening to cause detriment to a person who makes a complaint or provides information to the workforce inspectorate as part of its new complaints referral function.
