Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, through the whole community empowerment initiative, it is very difficult to find out what exactly is on the table in community transfers. So while the infrastructure is on the table, is everything on the table that communities take over? Also, there are so many different departments out in the communities pushing community empowerment. In any given community, there could be Transportation talking about the airports or you might have DPW talking about taking over the school, so on and so forth. I wonder, when the co-ordination from the regional offices for the communities for this type of agreement between the different departments is occurring, does MACA keep a good check on what is being discussed? When, for example, Transportation talks about taking on the airport in a certain community, does that department check with MACA to make sure, for example, the community is in a good sound, financial situation?
