I can't offer you any more on this issue except to say that, if the bill passes through the parliament, that consultation process will begin. The outcomes of that will determine many of these questions of detail: who will be engaged; the relationship to their role; all of those process questions. The government does not intend to pre-empt that process by the legislation defining the outcome any further than it does. The process begins. It'll be a good, thorough process. It'd do it a disservice if we constrained it by responding in the way that you've suggested.
