I am not in a position to provide you with an answer to that question. What I can say is that a large portion of the bill, and certainly the reason for the government's intent in promoting this bill and commending it to the Senate, is the fruit of extensive consultation with industry. Obviously in that consultation process industry has been able to raise with the relevant officials and department the various challenges they confront in dealing with the issues you have described. As for detail beyond that, I am afraid I will have to take that on notice.
