What would happen in a process in a strike right now? My concern is essential services, and a number of people in my own constituency have come to see me. Regardless of what they believe about the principle of the legislation itself, let's say this is enacted and it goes through. What would happen if there were essential services that were not being addressed, and application had to be made to the Industrial Relations Board? Would they take three months to determine whether a particular service was critical or not?
