I have a series of questions for the minister. Again, I'm supportive of the bill. I'm supportive of the stability and assurance that the bill provides to people who are beneficiaries of the PBS but also the companies that engage with the government in relation to this. Minister, can you confirm that the catch-up provisions in the bill are only meant to apply to those listed brands that have been on the PBS for 15 years?
