There is no agreement here, as of yet. All we are doing is deciding to allow a person to go into the room to have a chat and a negotiation. That is all that is being authorised. In a way, what is in the annexe is irrelevant because it is the agreement at the end of the process that counts. When there is an agreement in place, or a proposed agreement, we will have a say in respect of it because we have decided to opt in. Members will get their democratic say in respect of that agreement once it is finalised.
