One of the terms that is also used is that we are beyond full employment, which is fantastic to see. There is actually pressure getting workers. I read somewhere yesterday that there are over 200 vacancies for high-level construction workers at the moment which just cannot be filled. It is a big issue. I notice the IDA is a member of the Open Doors initiative, of which I am also a member, which is trying to encourage and support people from marginalised backgrounds to get employment.
