Briefly, given the long incubation period, there is a slight concern still that there is not greater clarity. One would assume there will be a centralised website. That seems to be the model elsewhere in most other jurisdictions, where it is not only a requirement that employers would publish on their own website, which adds to the administrative burden on employers, particularly once we get to the employers with 50 or more employees rather than the really large employers. We suggested employers would publish on websites. That was to push a little more on what exactly will be required of employers. Will they be asked to publish directly to a centralised source or will they be published on their own websites? The Minister will be consulting trade unions, employers and other groups. There has already been extensive consultation in recent years. It is unfortunate it was not made clear earlier there would be a centralised website, but I am glad to hear it. I will not press the amendment.
