Just following on from Senator Wong there with the ASIC situation, we've got over 200 communities, and one of the biggest issues is the inability to have letterboxes in each of the houses, and in Alice Springs we have 15 to 18 town camps. So if we follow that thinking in the ruling of ASIC in the letter we talked about today, how do you propose to not put the department and the government in a precarious situation legally if you cannot deliver these cards and you have to actually ask each of those families first? Have you sought a legal understanding of whether you can actually do that?
