That is lovely. Will the deputation clarify the percentage of women who are taking up these temporary, part-time and replacement jobs, particularly in light of the problem and in the context of UCG's issue with gender inequality? We are being told about precarious employment. I am merely putting this forward. It is the same down here; we are being swamped with information from people who know far more about this than we do. We can see that gender inequality is still a major issue and that precarious employment, part-time work, etc., predominantly relate to females.

It is late. I am putting that to the representatives of NUIG. That is what we are being told. They can say "Yes" or "No" to me, or they can say, "We don't know and we will come back".
