Any deals that are done with businesses that aren't registered are entirely commercial decisions for the platforms and those businesses and not at all within the purview of this legislation, but, certainly, the Treasurer's decision to designate or not will occur with the understanding of those businesses that are registered with the ACMA code. And there are an awful lot of other factors as well to take into account before the Treasurer makes a decision to designate.
