Will Malcolm Turnbull's Liberal Party support the restoration of Australian workers' rights or will he back a continuation of WorkChoices?

That is the stark question posed by this new ACTU television advertisement which has been produced ahead of the expected introduction into Parliament of legislation to establish a new national industrial relations system.

Unions welcome the new laws as a big step towards scrapping WorkChoices. The proposed legislation will give all workers protection from unfair dismissal, strong collective bargaining rights, rights to union representation, and a powerful independent umpire.
