    Submission to the Senate Rural Affairs and Transport Legislation Committee Inquiry into the Air Navigation and Civil Aviation Amendment (Aircraft Crew) Bill 2011 Qantas Sale Amendment (Still Call Australia Home) Bill 2011 28 October 2011 ACTU Level 6, 365 Queen Street Melbourne VIC 3000 www.actu.org.au D No. 68/2011 Contents Executive Summary 1. Introduction 2. Recent developments in the Australian aviation industry 3. The development of the Qantas Group 4. ‘Sham’ corporate structures 5. The national interest 6. Employment 7. Skills development 8. National Security 9. Safety 10. The Bills 11. Conclusion Page | 2 Executive Summary 1. Civil aviation laws grant Australian airlines a number of privileges, including exclusive access to certain international air routes. In return, Australian airlines are required to be Australian owned, controlled, based, and responsible to Australian safety authorities. Traditionally, the holder of the licence was also required to observe Australian labour laws, and to be responsible to crew for the payment of their wages. However, recently, Qantas has been avoiding this obligation by ‘subcontracting’ routes to wholly-owned foreign-based subsidiaries. This sham arrangement has meant that it has been able to enjoy all of the privileges of holding an Australian airline licence, with none of the obligations. These abuses need to be checked. We support the proposed amendments to the licence requirements under the Civil Aviation Act and the Air Navigation Act . 2. Moreover, Qantas is in a special position, given that it remains regulated by the Qantas Sale Act . The intention of the Act is clearly to ensure that Qantas remains a truly Australian airline, with its international division operated from Australia.

Foreword The invention of the ‘black box’ flight data recorder is one of the many innovations that Australians have made in the area of aviation. But our world-renowned expertise goes well beyond aviation safety to encompass all areas of airport infrastructure and aerospace technology. Australia’s strengths in design, research and development, master planning, engineering, construction and IT have been successfully used to build airports and associated urban developments in Australia and globally. Australian noise and environmental monitoring systems have been incorporated in most of world’s major airports and cities including in London, Los Angeles, Hong Kong and Dubai. In addition, technology from an Australian firm is used in managing approximately 80 per cent of the world’s oceanic airspace. Australian businesses also offer cutting-edge baggage handling and lighting systems, perimeter and landside security systems, and airport construction and project management technologies and services.
