Frankly, I would prefer not to. It is a lot of work to take something on notice. As I said, it is unclear in each community whether or not a particular delegation of one individual in one community is made. Frankly, I do not know how helpful it is in terms of the consideration of the legislation. As I said, at this stage my answer is that I am unaware of that. If you insist I take it on notice, I will. I just am not really sure of the context of the question in relation to the legislation.
