Does Mr. Brady see any way to increase labour participation in the existing workforce? I know we are at full employment. We have a very low take-up of people with disabilities. We have the lowest rate in western Europe, with one in three versus well over 50% in many other countries. Does Mr. Brady see this or other ways of improving labour participation? Does he have thoughts on it?
