| Message | This will give more power to the employer. The Labour movement fought tooth and nail for the 8 hour workday, we fear this will undermine that struggle. I'm very curious to why CNP feel the need to change this balance. An argument from CNP on this bill would be much appreciated |

While we do not espouse such ideals, we cannot ignore the voice of the people.

| Message | I see, so it's a purely populist bill? Or is this bill in line with CNP's party platform and would have been created no matter the outcome of the poll? |
