I'm unaware of whether or not they would have reviewed that, but I would have assumed—and I think the reasonable assumption is—that they would be using best practice. I have seen some of the video material that's recently gone out. I think that that is world's best practice. We also fund and we look at—and we have the same assessments across—a whole range of processes. We have the Foundation of Alcohol Research and Education, Women Want to Know and Pregnant Pause—they're all NGOs. We provide the same funds and review the same processes in terms of content.

What I can say is that I understand that we do that in the very same way. And I do understand that, back in 2012, DrinkWise was provided by the previous Labor government point-of-sale educational material in the very same way. (Time expired)
