I thank the Chairman. I will try to be very focused. That was a very helpful first answer.

I want to ask Mr. Lupton specifically about the reference he made regarding the implications for the telecommunication companies. We have received views that the cost and complexity of implementing the technology, controls and safeguards will give effect to considerable process change and cost. If the current law, as published, is enacted, how long will it take for telecommunication companies to actually implement it and what will be the implications in terms of costs?
