I can answer the question, which I think was right at the end. In terms of what I'm responsible for, and the Clerk and others, it's providing a video presence for members, who have been trained, from their electorate office, with a background that is as close to parliamentary as possible, and that is available. Certainly, without going through all of the agreement, it allows all members participating to speak in debates but not to move motions, and they can't vote, but it enables the asking of questions and it enables the answering of questions as well. So that's really my side of it. Did the Leader of the House want to enter the discussion?
