I thank Senator Carr for that answer. Mr President, I ask a supplementary question: would the minister to explain to the Senate what support retrenched Bridgestone workers will receive for retraining, given that that may be critical to their re-employment prospects? What assistance will they be eligible for through the Automotive Industry Structural Adjustment Program and other Commonwealth programs? What new qualifications will they be able to pursue and how will this improve their employability?
