That the House:
(1) notes the industrial relations legislation introduced by the Government yesterday cuts the take-home pay of workers; and
(2) therefore, pursuant to standing order 37(c), calls on the Minister for Industrial Relations to immediately discharge the order of the day, Fair Work Amendment (Supporting Australia's Jobs and Economic Recovery) Bill 2020, from the Notice Paper.
