CFMEU fined $23,000,000

"Embattled construction union the CFMEU and its members have broken federal law more than 2,600 times, costing the union more than $24 million in fines, new court documents claim.
"The Fair Work Commission has outlined the union's history of breaches and made allegations of threats and intimidation in the construction industry as part of its Federal Court case to put independent administrators in charge of the union.
"The crackdown follows media reporting about stand-over tactics and bikie infiltration, which the Fair Work general manager Murray Furlong told the court were evidence the union had "ceased to function effectively".
"Since 2003, the CFMEU has been the subject of findings of contraventions of federal workplace laws on more than 1,500 occasions, plus 1,100 contraventions by its office holders, employees, delegates and members," Mr Furlong said in a submission.
"He added approximate 213 court cases had resulted in "total penalties ordered against the CFMEU of at least $24 million, plus at least $4 million ordered against its office holders, employees, delegates and members."

It took a Lab mob to enable this.

I think thats worth remembering. All the posturing from the Lib mobs about industrial reform and the ABCC, all the expense of this "adding to bureaucracy that achieved nothing", came to nought. 9 wasted years that promised to achieve much and achieved the opposite. nothing much.

so how can any complain about what the Labs have achieved in getting the CFMEU into court and under administration.
