Presumably, the delayed proclamation is based on the advice that you've just confirmed was given to the Intelligence and Security Committee and which, presumably, was also given to government by the Attorney-General's Department. Are you able to provide a time frame for the implementation of those two frameworks? I acknowledge that the transparency scheme is not the bill that is currently before the committee, Minister. I'm happy if you want to defer until we consider that bill, but you might be able to provide some advice about that now.
