Thank you, Mr. Chairman. There are essentially two types of provisions in this bill. One type are what you might call "empowerment provisions." They are the ones that we're saying very clearly have always existed. The other type of provision in this bill is what you might call a fee validation provision. We say that those provisions are deemed to have existed as of the date of first reading because that will preclude any lawsuits being launched after that point, with the advantage of the publicity that the introduction into the House brings. Then when you read those provisions, you see that they make a declaratory statement that those fees are valid. So, there was no need to say anything further in that respect. Thank you.
