Thank you, Mr. Speaker. A review has taken place on the Labour Standards Act on what changes, additions and improvements need to be made on the act itself. Work can continue fine tuning which parts of the act need changing. The actual drafting up and improving on the legislation will have to wait for another year, at least. As I said, we do recognize the need to make changes to the act. With the short time that we have in the 12 to 14 months before the end of this Assembly's life, we need to prioritize which legislation the government can deal with. Thank you.
