I would add to that--and it doesn't matter whether PPSC is looking at a crown brief pre-charge or after charges--that if there's a gap in the evidence and we feel it needs to be covered in order for there to be a successful prosecution, we go back to the investigators. We say that we see a problem, and we ask them to fill this gap so that we can ensure we have a reasonable prospect of conviction. It's not sort of a close-a-door-in-their-face. There's a lot of back and forth if we see that there are gaps for them to correct those problems so that the files can go ahead.
