WA: Community Solidarity Protest against the ABCC

12:15pm Friday
Oct 31,
250 St Georges Tce Perth
(outside ABCC offices).

The date coincides with the next court hearing for Noel Washington, a Victorian union official who has refused to cooperate with the repressive Australian Building and Construction Commission. He faces six months in prison for refusing to answer the ABCC's questions.

The special powers of the ABCC have been condemned five times by the International Labor Organisation for breaching conventions that Australia has ratified. However the Rudd government has decided to keep the ABCC in place till 2010 after which it may retain it in modified form. Community Solidarity and the union movement are demanding that all the ABCC powers be abolished.
