Minister, I apologise if I was not clear. Some casual employees, as you know, have a number of jobs. What I'm concerned about is the process of applying for the second—just say I've chosen my first employer for the job that I most want to work for or that I think is the best opportunity, but that employer decides not to opt into the process. How long a time frame do you envisage before I know that that employer hasn't opted in and I can then go to my second employer, because I've got a second job?
