If I could, I will again turn to the role of ASQA, in terms of what the role of ASQA is in this. What is the mechanism by which ASQA would provide their view to the minister with respect to recommending the ceasing of processing of applications? Just to give you some guidance, does it have to be written? Could it be verbal advice? Is there going to be a formal reporting requirement established, or is it just going to be ad hoc? And who within ASQA will make the call that a threshold has actually been met to call on the minister to exercise the power?
