I understand that, and there obviously has to be negotiation with the trade unions. My point is that the objective is to reduce the workforce by 1,000. That could be done through voluntary redundancies or redeployment. The objective, we are being told, is to save €70 million in taxpayers' money by reducing the workforce. How could we save money if there were a redeployment of staff?
