Churches concerned about IR changes

From the ABC's AM program:

The churches remain unconvinced about the benefits of the Federal Government's workplace reforms. The Catholic Church's employment relations body has said the Government's proposals do not appear to address "fundamental concerns about fairness and balance". The Uniting Church says the package outlined by the Prime Minister John Howard on Sunday is "disgraceful and excessive". And Sydney's Anglican Archbishop says he's concerned that the Government's plans could mean less time for relationships.

QUOTE from Peter Jensen:

"If this is the consequence of the new legislation, if it is, and I haven't read the legislation yet, there won't be time for relationships. And after all, I would have thought that's what life is about, rather than the economy. Withoutshared time, we may as well be robots. "

No futher UCA comments, however.
