Obviously, Senator Patrick, you'll have the opportunity to investigate the legislation, when it comes out in draft very shortly, in relation to the circumstances that exist around the legislation to impose a levy. But you're correct; the government is seeking, by this mechanism, to make sure that the whole of industry is held to account for the behaviours of that industry. The details of how that is going to be achieved will be matters contained in that bill.
