I think what you're alluding to there is the banning of inducements for three months after a person deregisters from BetStop. We believe that is an important part of these reforms that does help protect those people who might be at risk. We also wouldn't want anything that we do as part of this legislation or these changes to discourage someone from registering with BetStop in the first place, and that there's potential around some of these changes that would be impacting on that. That's why we think that that reform is important.
