The bill could inflame tensions between Labor and some of the union's top brass, such as Victorian state secretary John Setka.
  • In short: The Albanese government will introduce legislation giving members of the manufacturing division of the CFMEU an opportunity to split from the union.
  • While not expressly linked to Victorian CFMEU secretary John Setka’s campaign against the AFL, it follows criticism of his threats to the league.
  • What’s next?: The bill will be presented to parliament in the next few weeks.
