Mr. John McKeon:
We have also gone back over the historical cases and we are contacting all of them proactively ourselves. We are still finding that some of them, even after the proactive engagement, are not communicating with us, so it is an open question. If this trend continues, should we look for legislative powers, such as penalties? That is something we will look at.
