So you have actually allowed your department to work with employers to engage young people without all the so-called benefits that you claim the bill will provide—pretty typical. Minister, you indicated in your summing-up speech yesterday that there was feedback from youth who you said had been telling us: 'We would love to get a job, but we don't have the skills the employers need.' Can you advise us: who did you consult to get this feedback? What was the process, and when did the consultation occur?
