Mr. John McKeon:
Okay, and to be fair, we will generally take a fairly firm line. For example, some people have said they do not want to go to community employment, JobPath or a one-to-one meeting with a case officer. We have told them they have to go. If there is a good reason - and it must be a very good reason - that may not happen. Some people have said they are uncomfortable, afraid, do not know about it or do not understand but that is not a good enough reason to be left alone.
