80837 (2024). Arena Williams to the Minister for Building and Construction: Since 7 December 2023, has the Minister had any written or verbal communications with the Ministers for Immigration or Social Development and Employment about any actions to “resolve worker shortages” in the Building and Construction Sector, as outlined in the National 'Better Building and Construction' document, and if so, what minutes, briefings, aides-memoire, or any other documents has the Minister, or any member of their Office have as record on these communications by title and date?

Hon Chris Penk: I regularly talk with my ministerial colleagues including the Minister for Immigration and Social Development. I am not aware of any briefings that have been produced to support these conversations.
