Again, all of this was taking place in a tight timeframe. As I said, we put in the request for the drafting of this legislation in late July. We are talking about a meeting that was taking place in early September. We had indicated priority for the maternity protection section. We initiated this piece of legislation in order to advance that because of the importance that I place on the issue of NDAs. I wanted that included as well so I asked that this also be included. That piece, however, was not ready for inclusion in the stamped draft.
