Incompetent ABCC illegally interrogated 203 people
The Australian Building and Construction Commission’s admission that it has overstepped its legal authority in illegally interrogating hundreds of Australians is yet another reason for the Federal Government to scrap the flawed body and end its attacks on workers’ rights.
Listen to Dave Noonan's comment and ABCC reply on AM today.
Under the ABCC’s draconian powers it can issue “Section 52” notices which allow the ABCC to question people in secret hearings. Those affected are not allowed to discuss the questioning publicly and do not have a choice of legal representation.
However answers to Parliamentary questions on notice have revealed the ABCC has overstepped these powers by repeatedly using defective notices to question people.
