No, that is fine. I was interested in the fact that one individual cannot put pressure on an industry to supply white goods, for instance, that have a long life. I wondered if companies can do that more effectively because the legislation around obsolescence is, as we have seen, complex and difficult to implement. Is there something in industry that makes this happen a little more easily than it would for an individual consumer? Perhaps we do not know the answer to that.
