FED:Coalition calls for early Fair Work review

The federal opposition wants an urgent review of the Fair Work Act.

A review into the Labor government's industrial relations laws is scheduled for 2012
but the Productivity Commission has recommended an earlier review in its draft report
on the retail industry..

Opposition spokesman SCOTT MORRISON has told ABC TV the government should bring forward
that review as a matter of urgency to address the issues of inflexibility that the commissioner's
highlighted.

While MALCOLM TURNBULL has told Sky News there's a lot of anecdotal feedback, and some
pretty serious commentary from the Productivity Commission and the Reserve Bank, calling
for the review to be brought forward.
