Thank you Mr. Chair. The first challenge we have as a department, is to try to get the community together, and that is a big challenge. I think if we can talk about the basic needs of the community, we should be able to accomplish that goal, but right now we are recognizing the municipal body as the first point of contact, but we have to talk to the other groups in the community, and get the whole community working together, and different organizations, in order to start up on this community empowerment initiative. The Hamlet would be taking the lead in the presentation, if they wanted to do that, but we are making ourselves available to the other groups in the community. The challenge we have in the department is that we have to get all the groups working together first, and get it co-ordinated after they start working together. Thank you Mr. Chair.
