Mr. Tony O'Brien:

To be honest, I am less concerned with their private motivations in the past than with providing sufficient motivation to do what is required now. The agreement reached through the Labour Relations Commission is an important part of the process under way in each location, with discussion support to the outliers as part of that. In the round, we are seeing progress, and I am most interested in that. Clearly, there are many outliers on which we must focus.
