SYDNEY -Minimum wage increases that match inflation would be welcomed by the Australian government, the prime minister said on Friday, although the Labor government's submission to an independent wage-setting body did not advocate as such. The government submission recommended real wages for low-paid workers 'do not go backwards' but added it was not suggesting wages should 'across-the-board' automatically increase with inflation. Changes to the national minimum wage are reviewed annually by the independent Fair Work Commission (FWC), which last year delivered an increase largely in line with inflation at the time.
