That is very helpful. The ESRI was before the committee last week and spoke about potential job losses, for which I do not see the evidence. The ESRI spoke about a potential reduction of hours, and there is some evidence for that. Is it possible for us to look at legislation to allow companies to prove that there would be job losses, and to exempt those businesses if they could prove this?
