Inquiry into employment: increasing participation in paid work
All Committees of the House of Representatives and joint committees of the Senate and House of Representatives for the 40th Parliament ceased to exist upon dissolution of the House of Representatives at 4:59pm, Tuesday 31 August 2004. Therefore, this inquiry has now lapsed.
On 25 June 2003 the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, the Hon Tony Abbott MP, asked the Committee to inquire into and report on employment issues in both rural/regional and urban/outer suburban areas.
With a focus on employment, there are also links to the working age payment reform process initiated with the joint release of the Building a simpler system to help jobless families and individuals consultation paper by the Minister for Family and Community Services and the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, and to the Demographic Change process which is addressing the issues raised in the
Intergenerational Report 2002-03 which was released by the Treasurer.
