Dr. Niall Muldoon:
Yes, again, we are looking at one section. We are so far behind that we are trying to catch up with 50 years of legislation in every other country. Things need to be improved. There have been significant steps forward. What we are trying to do here is to make the best of this opportunity, which I am certain will not come again for another 20 years. We are trying to get the best legislation we can at this point in time.
