I have been informed by the ACT chief police officer that a brief of evidence is likely to be provided to the director of ACT public prosecutions in the coming weeks, he told Senate estimates.

Menulog’s trial to treat its delivery riders as employees could lead to a shift in the way gig economy companies classify their workers, challenging the idea that they’re entrepreneurs themselves.
And, according to one labour law expert, that can’t happen soon enough.
Speaking at Labor’s Senate enquiry into job security on Monday, Menulog managing director Morten Belling reportedly said the company will trial an employment model, offering its delivery workers a full suite of employee entitlements.
“We hope that in a few years time all the workers that are working on the Menulog platform will be employed,” Belling said.

CEO of Menulog Morten Belling has said employment is a moral obligation.Â
