Hon MICHAEL WOOD: Categorically, no. The bill is explicit in its requirements that unionism remains voluntary and that the benefits of fair pay agreements apply to members of unions and people who are not members of unions. It also explicitly prevents recourse to industrial action either by employers or employees. Any information to the contrary is categorically false, and while I expect there to be vigorous debate around this issue, I encourage anyone engaged in the debate to do so on the merit and substance of the bill, to deal with the problems of low wages in New Zealand that we are trying to resolve, and not to engage in misinformation.
