I have ongoing consultations with representatives of different media organisations. You would expect, as we are looking at media reform, that I would be in contact with media organisations. Their input is important; they are stakeholders. Consumers of media are also important stakeholders. Their views are important, their views as expressed by my colleagues are important, and the views of media organisations are important. So I have discussed numerous scenarios with media organisations. As I indicated in answer to the primary question, once we have concluded the internal processes of government, I will make an announcement and be in a position to share that decision.
