Right off hand, I can't recall seeing any Australian movies, but that
is probably more a case of my inability to recall than anything else.
The soaps, though, I must say I haven't seen any.  The next Aussie 
movie I see, I'll pay attention to the belts.

Wow.....so, I imagine if someone violates this requirement, there
is a fine levied?
