There is a concern in relation to that. The other thing mentioned by Mr. Donnellan was a limited number of new applications for the voluntary redundancy scheme. We have heard a concern that all older workers have had difficulty in being allowed to take voluntary redundancy. If we are looking at this collectively, which is our job as a committee, we have to look at the overall workplace. We want to know that older workers can take those voluntary redundancy schemes so that we do not have voluntary redundancy for younger workers who are then put into the employment system to start training again. Will Mr Donnellan kindly comment on that, please?
