That is bizarre. That is in the alliance's presentation.

Will they explain how the issue of litigation goes? We all have a duty in our roles to find out what is happening in the world around us. Anecdotally, I am picking up that small claims are being settled. Rather than going the whole way, they are being settled on or even before the steps of the court on economic grounds. We discussed that earlier. How does the diversion into litigation happen then? I fall on the shop floor. I seek my claim. Where does it go to litigation, if it is settled outside?
