We accept the necessity in terms of the connectivity that an island requires in particular. It is absolutely vital that we have an aviation sector. Reference was made to the significant number of workers in the sector who are under severe pressure financially. My next question is for the union representatives in particular and relates to their dealings with the employers and the Government. They stated that some of the difficulties related to the TWSS and referred to the changes they want to the EWSS, as well as discussing protecting workers' rights. I assume they fear this period could be used as a means of undercutting workers' rights. I ask them to deal with the plans and interactions they have had with employers and the Government. If possible, I will get back in for another question at the end.
