Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I note the minister’s last words that there will be savings for businesses at every level. Will he give an assurance and match the Deputy Prime Minister’s earlier commitment that no business will face increased costs? And, if he will not give that assurance, how many other industries or groups, like the agricultural and country show sectors, will be disadvantaged by award rationalisation? Will the minister stand by the words and the assurances of the Deputy Prime Minister?
