Letter of 16 December 2007 to the newly elected Prime Minister

Dear Sir,

Congratulation on becoming the Prime Minister!

We have been touched when you paid tribute to Mr Bernie Banton in your election victory speech because he had fought for fellow sufferers for many years. You encourage people to learn from Mr Banton and to fight for justice and their rights. We are inspired by Mr Banton’s campaign for compensations from James Hardie Industries, and have campaigned for Australians’ constitutional right to obey law at work because the former Coalition Government refused to take any action when the judgment of Zhang v The Royal Australian chemical Institute Inc affected all workers’ constitutional right to obey law.

We raised our concerns to the former Prime Minister at the beginning of this year. On 25 October, after calling the election, he finally recognized that the matters were ‘policy matters’ and suggested us ‘raise the matter that are contained in [our] letter with the incoming government once the outcome of the election is known’.

Previous communications with the former Prime Minister are enclosed.
We all know the Labor’s attitude toward worker’s right is different from the Liberal, and believe the Labor Government will take proper actions to resolve the problems quickly.
