Where is the Rudd Government going?
Ken Phillips (Executive Director, ICA) argued in a recent article in The Age that the Left and Labor have dumped socialism. Craig Emerson (Minister for Independent Contractors) recently delivered a speech in which he argued that the Rudd
Government is free market and explained the detail. If these two views are accurate, they provide an interesting framework within which to understand and judge the Rudd Government's actions. Click here for the Minister's speech and here for Ken Phillips's article.
ALP Policies on Independent Contractors
During 2007, ICA had extensive liaison with the ALP on its independent contractor policies. We have consolidated the three major statements they made to us. The ALP advises us that these statements are its policies. For the consolidated document, click here.
