Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we have put a very competitive offer of a 27 percent pay increase on the table, and I would like to point out in this House that over the past number of months we have also negotiated an agreement with the UNW staff for three years, three percent per year, and we've also successfully concluded negotiations with the general practitioners and fee for service. So now we have 18 specialists left that we are negotiating with, and that we have put an offer on the table for 27 percent, and we are more than willing to sign a deal that is reasonable and sustainable. Thank you.
