I'm advised it's in order to not compel survivors. Sorry, let me just seek some clarification on that. Senator Siewert, I'm advised that the legislation provides the parameters in relation to compelling the institutions, but it can't compel survivors. You need the survivors to provide information, or otherwise, for their application to be progressed.
