...based on the answers to the Sullivan questionnaire, answers to letters written by Harvard, and answers to the IRRC questionnaire. It's difficult to generalize about the contents of those questionnaires and the contents of the data we collected. I think it would be sufficient for the moment to say, first, that they do not paint a rosy picture of the situation in South Africa, and secondly, there is considerable variance, apparent variance, in the level of efforts the companies are devoting to, particularly, employment policies.
