Mr. Robert Watt:

We can check and we can see. I have heard or read some of the reports. Many of the employees in the voluntary sector or the service provider sector have conditions of employment that tend to mirror our pay, overtime, travel and subsistence rates and so on even though they are not public servants and they are not bound by the agreement. It is likely that managers in those organisations will say the terms and conditions are now different from the public sector and, therefore, they will reflect those differences in how they deal with staff. I have no doubt that there are discussions ongoing in those organisations about how their conditions of employment will change to reflect what is happening in the system.
