Before answering that, I wish to return to Senator Conway's question. It is extraordinary that someone with a betting account can be barred by a financial institution from getting a mortgage. I invite all groups to reflect on that and come back to us if that is what is happening. It is a very good question. While I accept it is not contained in the heads, it is peripheral to it. The witnesses may not have an answer to it now because it was not within the original scope. However, it is a very relevant question to which we may return.
