Again, I'm not going to say what the Fair Work Commission will decide on a particular matter; that is always a decision for them. The entire point of this amendment is to eliminate hypothetical working arrangements that are not reasonably foreseeable. The entire point of this amendment is to speed up the process and avoid the sorts of protracted matters such as the one you're referring to. I don't think I can be any clearer than to say that, in any matter Fair Work Commission will consider, they won't be required to consider hypothetical working arrangements that are not reasonably foreseeable.
