Minister Gillard speaks about the Keep Australia Working Community Forums
The Government's hosted 21 Keep Australia Working forums around the country.
These forums have been conducted in our priority employment areas, those parts of
the country we know are particularly at risk from rising unemployment during the
global recession.
Keep Australia Working forums are all about bringing regional leaders together, to
work out how our Economic Stimulus Package can make the most difference in their
local region.
We are providing economic stimulus around the country, building the infrastructure
we need for tomorrow, whilst supporting jobs today.
And these forums have been all about how local people can best access the jobs
flowing from economic stimulus and the new infrastructure in local communities.
