One thing we do not want to do is pre-empt the outcome of the trials. We take the evaluation seriously. We will want to have the trial, look at the evaluation, see if it is a success and, if it is, then at that point we would make a determination as to whether to seek to expand it to other communities. Our approach with this trial, and possibly with another two, is to work with local communities, to be consultative and to see if there is a willingness as there is in Ceduna. In Ceduna there is a really, really strong desire for this to be in place, but we take the evaluation seriously and I would not want to prejudge that evaluation or any decisions that we might take after that.
