Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell says Australians saw their first “industrial relations stoush” out of the Jobs and Skills Summit this weekend.
“The NSW government is angry that just as they threatened the rail union they were going to rip up their enterprise agreement in a bid to stop strikes that have dragged on for months,” Mr Clennell said. “Industrial Relations Minister Tony Burke wrote to Fair Work Commission President Iain Ross saying the Commission should not terminate enterprise bargaining agreements on the request of employers.
“Only on Thursday NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet told us he was prepared to rip up the current enterprise agreement and apply to the Fair Work Commission to stop industrial action and he hoped the Commission would grant his wishes.”

'This is why the outcome of the summit is a total, complete and utter win for the union movement in Australia – this is what they've been asking for now for years and years,' Ms Cash told Sky News Australia. 'Even the former Rudd and Gillard governments refused to deliver on this, but Mr Albanese is paying his paymaster in full but at the expense of the Australian people, the Australian economy – at the expense of productivity.'
