         <link>http://www.policyinthepub.com.au/next_events/27_june_2011</link>
         <description>In April 2011, Australias eleven Industry Skills Councils (ISCS) released a joint report No More Excuses: An Industry Response to the LLN Challenge claiming that insufficient LLN levels are held by millions of Australian workers. The report recommends the building of LLN skills be a shared responsibility and proposes that the Council of Australian Governments should establish an overarching national blueprint for action on LLN in Australia 2012-2022. The May/June Policy in the Pub forums will examine the ISC report in closer detail, in particular, its key recommendations and solutions for achieving improved LLN skills. Key questions to be explored include: Why are Australias LLN skills so low? Do the ISCs proposals stack up? What policy directions are needed to tackle these issues of national concern?</description>
