If there is work then they will be replaced, maybe not on full time contracts but replaced.
If there isn't the work then there aren't any jobs.
If they get to leave on the current very generous VR terms then I am sure they will be very happy.

We have lost about 80 000 jobs over the last 10 years. There doesn't appear to be any great acceleration to that rate of attrition.
Where they are replaced, how many will be replaced my agency/casuals?

my thoughts exactly. they will most likely be replaced by agency staff.
