I'm just trying to understand the interaction between this legislation and the various different agencies that we have within our intelligence community. Typically the intelligence community involves six agencies. In some sense it's being expanded as we have these agencies work together. I'm just trying to understand: this legislation, if brought into law, would actually cause changes across all of those organisations in the sorts of operations that they might do to now to take advantage of the new offences, which can give rise to search warrants and other such things that intelligence agencies normally participate in.
