Just to revisit this clearly, Minister, I'd like you to confirm, if the minister does not designate any digital platforms under the code, will ACMA still register news businesses? Will this registration process assist small publishers in accessing support for negotiations with digital platforms? And will this registration process assist the minister in determining whether there has been a substantial contribution to the sustainability of the Australian news industry?
