MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:50):</by>  I thank the honourable member for her supplementary question. As I said, we will absolutely negotiate and bargain in good faith and I have no doubt that the unions, who are very, very strong advocates, will put forward what the consequences are of some of the entitlements that we do or don't have in South Australia, so we look forward to examining those as public sector agreements come up over the next couple of years.</text>
