That's correct, because a lot of the retailers are worried about arbitrary actions by government officials. They recognize that their businesses, to a great extent, depend upon cooperation with those who are the regulators, and they don't want to be offside with the regulators even if the regulator is wrong. So this sends a very clear message, and I think would give these businesses the legal authority to stop and perhaps even initiate a legal action, if a regulator stepped out of line in terms of demands that they're making as a condition to the licence that these shops own.
