Sorry, I'm a little confused as to how critical mineral processes is general in nature. I do have a very specific question. It might be that you need to come back to the chamber on it, and I'm happy for the advisers to take it away.

In the terms of companies that process lithium spodumene concentrate to lithium hydroxide—this is of concern to some of the companies—can you guarantee that they will not be adversely impacted by these changes? So it's quite specific: lithium spodumene concentrate to lithium dioxide.
