My other question was whether there is now a consensus between the two sides here such that they could go to the Minister to say a strategy needs to developed under five pillars: transition problems, pay conditions and training, location planning and support from local authorities, digital transformation online and so on, and the circular economy. Those are issues on which everyone is agreeable but there is something of a stand-off between the two sides in respect of whether there are preconditions or whether one side or the other gets engaged. Is it possible to say there are no preconditions and that if this request is made, perhaps there could be an effort to support such a strategy being evolved?
