That is fantastic. In fairness, one must applaud the business model used by two of the Senators present and the fact that the two businesses compete at a world class level. I am acknowledging this without plámás. I lived in Belgium for three years and I always thought Cadbury's was the only chocolate product until I moved to Belgium. We can now appreciate where we are with the wonderful product ranges and the high quality of those products.

Collective agreements are addressed in section 8 and the possibility is allowed for in that section of concluding local and enterprise level agreements. The fundamental point of the legislation concerns transposition of a directive and protection of workers' rights. The question is what a person should be paid now. There is no question of referring or reverting to old pay rates. This does not arise. Where does the Bill mention reverting to old pay rates?
