It is a completely separate matter, but we expect heads of the legislation will be sent to the committee in a matter of weeks. It will update certain provisions but will not include the establishment of a regulator as such. It will update a great deal of the 1956 legislation which is completely unfit for purpose and out of date. The heads of the Bill will be published in a matter of weeks, although I was hoping it would be done by now. It is imminent. It is a large Bill and it deals with many issues, gambling being the main part of it.
