We're currently dealing with a bill in relation to paid parental leave, so I can only provide you the response that has been given to me by the department in relation to that aspect of your question. Again, it goes to the information I have already provided—that in terms of paid parental leave we're only at the very early stages of the impact. As I've said to you, in the normal course of events the estimation would be able to be done, but because of the unprecedented nature of the event and the fact that we're only in the early stages of it, this has not yet been undertaken.
