If I can, I will just ask a follow-on question from that. The ruling is pretty strong. To be honest, I would say it would be pretty difficult to wriggle out of it. By the way, it does resonate with the points that our committee came up with in its report. Is there an acknowledgement that therefore there is a systemic issue that needs to be investigated? They had to go a long way and, as a result of all of this, that group of workers has not worked for four years now. Does every other worker who could fall victim to this have to go through the same process or is it Ms Donaghy's understanding that something might be done to prevent the other groups of workers having to go through the same hardship and nightmare?
