Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Legal aid is the financial reimbursement to individuals who would have to hire a lawyer to represent them, whether it's a civil or a criminal matter. A court worker would provide some of the support services and get some of the information ready in trying to assist the individual to access legal aid through the application. Thank you.
