Mr. John Arkins:

BB146 refers to any agreement that takes one outside the maximum labour week. The signatories to that agreement have not signed. The people who SPI represents, who are our employers, should sign the agreement. The workers they expect to work in this industry should sign the agreement and no representative bodies can do so. That is the reason we raise this issue time and time again. People cannot sign up to an employment agreement with someone who does not employ them. The main two stakeholders in this industry are the employees and the employers. We have identified ourselves as the employees.
