Thank you for that, Minister. And that is fine—they have done the sample of 100. And maybe the MBA are right—maybe the majority of their members do—but they rarely actually employ people on building and construction sites. They are effectively a manager of contractors and subcontractors, and of course they are the people that need to be on the sites to do the work. So how many agreements do we think are in the building and construction industry—not just the CFMEU but across the whole industry, including mechanical services, electrical services, air conditioning, the civil component?
