I have another question on implied consent. A number of submissions were made concerning the 18-month time frame for business-to-consumer communications. If I understand correctly, that 18-month period has remained unchanged. You haven't increased it. A number of submissions were made on that point. Let's take the example of a real estate agent, since I just talked about that. A real estate agent sells houses. He wants to sell a house today, and in five or six years, his client may want to resell the house. So I find the 18-month time period restrictive. I would like to know the justification or motivation for that time period, which is still 18 months.
