I have not read the report yet, so I am not going to have a conversation on it just yet. It is not an area we will spend money on between now and Christmas, which is the topic of this meeting. It is an issue on which I will engage with the Deputy again. We take every opportunity to bring in flexibility and encourage more people into the workforce. We are open to discussing and debating how to protect jobs but I will not get into this issue without first having read the report.
