Samantha Ratnam: Support for Local Councils
Samantha Ratnam MP asks the Minister for Local Government why the government continues with a policy which exacerbates wage suppression and job creation suppression in a predominantly female workforce.
Our local councils deliver critical services to our communities and are staffed and governed by some of the most dedicated people you will ever meet. The existing rate cap on local councils has been demonstrated to suppress wages and jobs growth in a sector that has a predominantly female workforce.
We need to be lifting wages, promoting and protecting equality of work for women in our economy and ensuring local communities have access to quality services.
