I just foreshadow that I've got a series of questions here, so perhaps I could keep the call, if that's okay. The government have said throughout this debate and even in the lead-up to it that the transition for participants needs to be staged—it needs to be slow—with individual support, which makes sense. My questions really go to the mechanics now of how people are going to transition. If someone chooses to move to voluntary income management, how will that process work and how will it be staged?
