I might give an example. When other parts of the gambling industry were being represented before the justice committee, we asked the same questions of the representatives of Flutter and they were able to tell us the figures. While they used United Kingdom figures, they subsequently provided to the justice committee a subset of them that were dedicated to player welfare concerns within Flutter, what they did to address them and what proportion that related to. They had a team dedicated to that, albeit not in a sufficient way as far as we were concerned. Similarly, a team must be involved in, for example, notifications to the regulator of any difficulties with the licence.
Mr. Algeo stated that was the first step of a five-step process that PLI takes. Obviously-----
