MPs across the political spectrum are fired up over the latest proposal to overhaul —under urgency— rules around pay equity.  

The proposed law, which would lift the threshold of pay equity claims of gender-discrimination, is expected to have its third reading this morning.  

Labour's Ginny Andersen told Mike Hosking the Government was boasting about savings.   

She says the women in these jobs need to know their wages have been undercut to pay for the Government’s budget. 

Mark Mitchell says it's not that simple. 

He says taxpayers are the ones funding the pay equity system, and so they need to ensure it’s sustainable.
