There is a big issue, and we cannot expect people to work under those conditions. I am not saying that. However, it ends up costing more money with reports following reports. Something has to be done in terms of an employment package to attract people. That is not our area but it becomes our area because it ends up before us in the form of more and more reports. We had the Thorn report. We have a list of reports with which we could paper a wall. That is the message we have to try to send out. As we have seen everywhere - there is no point in repeating it - it costs more money and the taxpayer ends up paying.
Correct.
