Government to bail out Job Network

Well lads its boom time in the land of plenty but still got over 6% on the dole any plans ?
Nice one here try throwing millions of tax payers dosh at this bollocks , if it fails we stick it up the idle bastards that its their fault.

THE Federal Government would need to spend millions of taxpayers' dollars to bail out Job Network providers caught in a scheme flawed by technological failures, Labor said today.

But Employment Minister Mal Brough denied the claims and instead blamed greedy job seekers for the problems.

Opposition employment spokeswoman Jenny Macklin said the Job Network system, where private companies were paid to find the unemployed work, was in danger of collapse.

"The Job Network is in serious financial trouble," she told ABC Radio.

But Mr Brough denied the Job Network was about to collapse or was in any danger.

He said the problem lay with the unemployed because many either had jobs and were claiming benefits or refused to meet their obligations to find work
