The Greens will also support the amendments. We do not think that the amendments go as far as our amendments did. We have tried to move a series of amendments that we believe provide much better protection as to redundancy and, instead of limiting it to 12 months, we tried to extend it so it was open-ended. We think that would have been a better approach, but an extra 12 months is better than nothing, I have to say.
