Again, as I have indicated, AFMA is an independent regulator, but it is not here as we are dealing with an environment bill. I can take your question on notice as I do not want to speculate on what is in the individual commissioner's mind when they make decisions about these things. I am not the commissioner, but I will seek to obtain an answer for you.
