There are two things that are being said here. In the explanatory memorandum, you say, ‘This is a new thing that we are doing.’ Now you are making an argument to say, ‘This is not something new.’ I appreciate your honesty in saying that you are already doing this; now I want to understand the circumstances. Your answer to me was, ‘As per the Telecommunications Act.’ The Telecommunications Act does not currently have, as you described, this regime for regulating this information about where you are and who you are talking to on the phone. Can you give me some more detail about the circumstances where you are already doing this?
