I want to do more on apprenticeships for tradesmen. I should have been told to marry a tradesman. They are the heroes, together with the front-line workers. They were underrated but are valued much more now. There is a shortage of them; they are like gold. We need to value them. I will follow up with Mr. Berney. What do Dr. McGann and Ms Redmond think about the gap in the incentive? How will we get to the target of 10,000?
