There are a couple of points. The first is that the ACCC will be providing guidance. As I said before, there will be safe harbour defences. I do not want us to have to stop the process at this stage and go back to the states and territories and undo the progress we have made to date. I really think it is important for us to bed down what we have got. The only way we can improve on this is to implement it and see how it goes. I think that is really important.
