Sinéad Mercier has models on Spain. It is the just transition dialogue approach again. Where just transition has worked well has been when it was at a community-level dialogue upwards, rather than looking to big industries such as the machine-rental industry and agribusiness. Just transition is not necessarily for the shareholders in those companies. It is for the community including everybody working in those areas. An interesting example for us to look at might be Spain which has modelled those just transition conversations.
