That's a ridiculous answer, with respect. These laws are not in effect as yet, but if these laws are passed, as I assume they will be, and Geelong manufacturers are required and compelled under your laws—they are a manufacturer which employs more than 20 people. If they are required and compelled to bargain with Viva Energy—please provide this chamber with the advice as to how Geelong manufacturers can be given certainty that they won't be placed in this situation and be forced to close. The response that you gave before is totally inadequate and does not address my question. I would ask you to address my question.
