Sorry, I just need to finish this. Employers have increased costs. From an employee perspective it is fantastic but from an employer perspective, there is an increased cost of employment. Let us say a provider applied for its grant based on X. The Government brings in a right and entitlement for employees, for instance, on 28 November, the domestic violence leave will come in. Where is the elasticity for a provider? When that individual employee is out, a person still needs to be covering that.
