I thank Dr. O'Sullivan for her presentation. May I offer her an opportunity to reply to the criticism levelled against her report by some of the other presenters that it exceeded the terms of reference which were given in writing? I am interested in Dr. O'Sullivan's comment on that.

Some of the larger employers - some of whom were invited to present to the committee but declined - have concluded agreements with their staff on the issues. Have the witnesses looked at how any of those are playing out since the agreements were entered into between the employer and the employees? Penneys is one example we were given. I am curious if the witnesses looked at the larger employers.
