Senator Wong would be well aware that the matter that we are referring to is actually still before the court and so I can't come in here and provide information about not only the legal advice but the date it was received. However, what I can tell you is that, last year, we made a decision that we would include an additional proof point to enable us to make sure the method by which debts were calculated was valid. That was undertaken at that time.
