His and his governments treatment of the tradies(small businesses)cheated from their money due to his governments incompetence in regards to the building education revolution isnt going to go down well,with the public in WA.

What happend to the liberal party, being the party of small business?

Fraud investigated after builders go bust

They argued that the Department of Building Management and Works was dishing out large contracts to WA builders under the Federal Government’s BER program.

Dozens of builders have gone bust without paying at least $45 million owed to their sub-contractors.

“BMW knew some of these builders were iffy, but they had to use them because if they didn’t spend the money the Federal Government would take it back,” an electrical sub-contractor, who didn’t want to be named, said.

“It’s now costing people their companies, their livelihoods, their homes.”

Opposition Leader Mark McGowan believes the total amount of money owed to sub-contractors in WA is about $100 million.

He said it has affected up to 1500 sub-contractors who worked on more than 700 school-related projects under the BER program.

“The money was provided by the Commonwealth to the State Government - $1.2 billion of free money – and all the Commonwealth said was get out there and improve schools around WA,” Mr McGowan said.

“The work was then outsourced from BMW to head contractors.”

Mr McGowan said that was enough for sub-contractors to believe there was security in doing the work.

Mr O’Brien conceded that a routine statutory declaration form the lead builders needed to sign to assure the Government it had paid all sub-contractors was flawed and would be changed.

Commerce Minister Simon O'Brien seems to have his head buried in, at very least, the sand when it comes to the impact of the failed handling of the BER money by the office of Building Management and Works. Listen here to the testimonies of several sub contractors who spoke to Paul Murray.

Steve rang the Morning program to tell Paul Murray exactly how the failed handling of the BER by the state government had affected not only his financial world but also his family life.

The brutal facts are col and co have let this man and many others down,with very sloopy procedures.

Of course had these hard working men,paid $12k to sit at cols table,no doubt they would have being treated differently.

If this was a mining operation,as opposed to a building one, col and co would be handing out taxpayers money like confetti.
