The prime minister said on Sunday an agreement bolstering the "common interests" of employers and unions should be struck."What we are interested in is making sure we can have improvements in enterprise bargaining that we can focus there on productivity and we can focus on ways in which business and unions come together," he told Sky News.
"The economy, of course, is always front and centre because if you don't get the economic outcomes right it's more difficult to achieve your social or environmental agendas," he said.
