An ACT Greens motion calling for an audit of the salary gap between men and women in the Territory’s public service has sparked a fierce debate in the Legislative Assembly.
The Greens argue many women are disadvantaged because they have to leave the workforce to have children while their male counterparts keep on moving up the pay scale.
Greens leader Meredith Hunter says it is important to scrutinise the pay gap.
I think Ms Hunter maybe missing a rather large and blunt point here, however, I shall let the learned readership discuss this issue.
