For the benefit of all, including myself, the Crown would retain the ownership of all licences. The Crown is ultimately the owner. All parties are holders of licences, not owners of licences.
To your question, yes, the question would have flowed to the holder of the licence. The subset of questions that were also provided as part of the survey would be seeking to identify if they had arrangements in place that would see beneficial ownership for benefits derived from said licence flow to other parties. That cuts to the lease arrangements.
