Text
I agree with what the Member has said. On the point that the Committee Chair made, with all due respect, the House voted that it had no confidence in the Minister. I certainly have no confidence that he will change the Bill in any way, shape or form that will make it any better. I repeat: the Bill is broken not because of a drafting error but because of its intent. The Bill's intention is not to make schools better but to intimidate teachers and undermine workers.
