That is my understanding—that they are licensed by states and territories. But I would reiterate the strong provisions under the bill in terms of the opportunity for ACMA to use the full suite of enforcement tools, including the fine that I mentioned before of $1.82 million for corporations per contravention. We make no apologies for wanting to be tough on gambling companies and holding them to account as part of this legislation.
