Mr. Aidan Murphy:
We have always engaged very much with our employees. Over recent years, we have had difficulties with costs and efficiencies. We have had very open and transparent dialogue with our employees and we received tremendous co-operation from them. As a diverse company with employees spread throughout the Republic, we have invested in an online platform called Workvivo. Staff members can access the platform on their mobile phones and more than 80% of our employees are engaging with it. Our CEO constantly provides updates to our employees to ensure all of them are fully in tune with what the company is doing and how we are moving forward. It is important that employees are fully engaged with the company in terms of the strategies we employ. That is our approach.
