I have outlined that provision. Section 21 provides that all of the advertising provisions must be reviewed within three years of the commencement of the section. However, the Minister for Health of the day can review any provisions in any Bill as time goes on. That is very much what the Bill is about. There are restrictions. Perhaps they are not what we all want. I refer particularly to football grounds. There will be no advertising painted on the pitch but there will be advertisements around the exterior of the pitch.
