Labor's insulation scheme

This matter clearly demonstrates that the shonkey Peter Garret  was protecting serious flaws  in this scheme.
It is obvious that the only remorse Kevin Rudd feels from my observation of his media apology in Jakarta is that the Government may be liable  for these deaths because of their reckless actions.
The Labor Party needs to pay up for their failure to protect these young boys and simply Rudd needs to suck it up and eat shit!!!

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd says he is deeply sorry for the deaths of three young men who were killed as a result of his government's botched home insulation scheme.
A Queensland Coroner's report has criticised employers and supervisors, as well as various state government agencies, for numerous safety failings that lead to the deaths of the three men.
But the issue also has potential to damage Mr Rudd, who had announced the program as part of stimulus efforts to shield Australia from the global financial crisis.
"This is an unspeakable tragedy affecting a young boy, a young man, and young men," Mr Rudd said on Thursday night after arriving in Jakarta ahead of a leaders' summit with Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
"I cannot as a parent begin to understand the grief the parents would be feeling under these circumstances."
Mr Rudd said the government accepted the Coroner's conclusions.
"Let's not beat around the bush. This was a government program," he said.
"I would simply say on behalf of the Australian government how deeply sorry I am, and of course we apologise without reservation."
Former Environment Minister Peter Garrett took the fall for program that led to deaths of three men in Queensland and another in NSW, and was blamed for a number of house fires, even though his department had raised concerns the pace in which the scheme was rolled out was affecting safety.
The report says there were numerous failings on the part of federal and state government agencies in relation to a lack of safety training for workers who were installing the foil insulation.
But it also notes that the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet under Mr Rudd did not respond to warnings issued by the Queensland Building Services Authority about the program.
