I would just say that one key issue here is obviously around building the capacity of civil society in low- and middle-income countries, and particularly around involving the social norms and behavioural changes, communications, and a broader approach to addressing child labour. When that is the result, and particularly when companies and government have to focus on engaging hard-to-reach and vulnerable groups such as women and children, you will then see increased due diligence. Legislation in this regard would avoid some of the cases we're seeing at the moment, for example of extraterritorial jurisdiction, whereby we're seeing community groups having to bring their cases all the way to Canada for alleged abuses overseas by Canadian-headquartered companies.
