ACCC has commenced criminal proceedings against the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMMEU) and its ACT Divisional Branch Secretary, Jason O’Mara, in relation to alleged cartel conduct. This is a pretty significant escalation of the ACCC's union enforcement activities.

Things seem to be going from bad to worse for the CFMMEU at the moment. They have already lost three court cases this month (and the month is only half way through!) - Australian Building and Construction Commissioner v Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (The Bendigo Theatre Case) (No 2) [2018] FCA 1211
Australian Building and Construction Commissioner v Ravbar [2018] FCA 1196
Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union v Australian Building and Construction Commissioner (The Broadway on Ann Case) [2018] FCAFC 126
