When I met Mr. Waide a few weeks ago, we explored the issue of technicians starting to fulfil certain roles at test centres rather than mechanics doing so. There are certain tasks, such as checking indicator lights and so on, that do not require a mechanic. As such, the skilled labour can be concentrated at the middle of the test line, with technicians at both end points. I ask Mr. Walsh to update the committee on the status of that development in terms of roll-out.
