Following the success of the June 30-July 1 nationwide union protests against the Howard government's proposed anti-union laws, in which up to 350,000 people participated, the ACTU executive has called a national day of protest action on Tuesday, October 25.

In the lead-up to the national day of action, the Victorian Trades Hall Council has called a mass delegates' meeting of all unions to be held in the Dallas Brooks Hall at 10am on Wednesday, September 7.
