I disagree. I do not think we should bring industrial disputes into the committee. The matter is before the courts. I do not believe it is the remit of this committee to become involved in what is an ongoing industrial dispute. The public purse is only two degrees of separation away from everything in this country and in my view it is a bit tenuous to attach the jurisdiction of this committee to this issue.
