I believe the process that was followed following the Sims report worked very, very well. There was a lot of consultation during the preparation of the Sims report. After the Sims report came down, there were numerous rounds of consultation again with labour and management over the amendments that would be made to the code, and were in fact brought into force in 1999. I believe, with one exception, there was total consensus on all of the changes that were made.
