I will go back on some of the original script which I was given. It is very clear from the script that a conference has been organised at the WRC for 8 February and that management has agreed to an extension of the interim arrangements up to and including the date of the WRC conciliation conference and to not later than Thursday, 5 February. This will allow a reasonable period for the parties to consider any proposals which emerge from the WRC.
