Speaker, in regard to the number of farmers that were granted exemption, there were only 86, and there were 480 who were refused exemption. About 585 applications were referred back to the farmers because they didn't submit supporting documents.
When those who have applied are refused exemptions, they have to pay the farm workers the difference as from the date of the implementation of the sectoral determination.
Also, regarding those that have been given the exemptions, we did that because they had agreements with the workers, where the workers had signed and agreed on how much would be paid to them for a certain period of time and when that package would be reviewed. This was also based on a projection by the farmer himself of the period of time after which that farmer would be able to pay the workers according to the sectoral determination. Thank you. [Applause.]
