A few points just came up. Mr. Godfrey said that in some cases, enforcement can deliver compensation to consumers. Where does that interact with a class of people who might be affected by something? If an individual takes an action and wins the case, does it require a qualified entity to take a case on behalf of a group of consumers who are similarly aggrieved, or does that individual's success knock on to all the consumers who are in a similar category? That is the first question.

The second question relates to what Mr. Jewell said about people starting in a low court. If a person has a victory in a low court but obviously only took the worst case, has the risk been considerably narrowed for a qualified entity taking a case for a much wider class of people for whom the same evidence effectively applies? What is the dynamic of that process?
