Thanks, Minister. Two of these bills have limited-use provisions which partly respond to the concerns that industry have about the provision of the information in relation to either ransomware or other cybersecurity. Much of the world, not least the United States, has moved to far more comprehensive safe-harbour provisions to ensure absolute protections. What was the rationale for limited use rather than safe harbour?
