As I've indicated, the regime has been in place only since September 19 and we have no real life experience with it yet. We must remember that one of the reasons for the regime is to encourage corporations to co-operate with investigative authorities and prosecutors and to provide information and perhaps evidence, if they agree to it, that would assist in the investigation or prosecution of others involved in corruption or bribery. There might be an ongoing or related matter, an investigation or prosecution, and some of the information contained within the agreement—the assertions as to the underlying facts—might, if made public, interfere with an ongoing investigation or prosecution. It might be necessary to have a confidentiality order for a short period of time for that reason.
