Henceforth, all casuals are getting their shifts reduced to 34 hours a week. Oh dear, looks like you don't qualify. Such a shame.

Unfortunately the reference to full-time is sloppy reporting from the Guardian. The quotes from the Minister only mention converting to 'permanent' work

Currently casuals working regular part-time hours are supposed to be offered permanent part-time work. I doubt they'll be changing that.
