There's a requirement existing currently, in part XXIV, that notice be given to the offender, of course, before we proceed. In the course of the notices that I prepare, and that I urge other crown attorneys in my region to prepare, is a comprehensive notice, which indicates what we are relying upon specifically. Of course, it's only required that we prove one of those disjunctive tests, but quite often it's the case that we're relying on three. Normally, the brutal nature doesn't arise. As I said before, I've never seen that one arise. But the first two that precede it and the one that follows it are often in the same case.
