I want to reiterate that the code is obviously not yet law and the fact that there are deals already being done—and, yes, they have been with larger news outlets—is a good sign. The fact that deals haven't been struck with the smaller and regional media companies doesn't necessarily provide evidence that that will remain so. In fact, we expect standard offers will be made by the digital platforms. Certainly, the Treasurer has been very clear that in his discussions with Mr Zuckerberg, both over the weekend and prior to that, Mr Zuckerberg has indicated a willingness to negotiate in good faith with Australian news outlets.
