Thank you very much.
My question goes to all the witnesses. I have kind of shown my colours already.
We know that the labour shortage is chronic at the moment. It has been that way for a number of years. It is not a new phenomenon or one that is different from one year to the next. The employers are always the same, the employees are often the same and they do the same job for one year, five years, 10 years and sometimes even more.
In that context, I would like to hear what you have to say about the case for increasing the duration of work permits and the validity of labour market impact assessments, specifically in order to provide more predictability.
