Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The community can decide what they want to do with the Community Empowerment Fund. They can also hire a community empowerment person who can look after all the proposals and see what the community wants to present to the RICE teams at the regional level. We can hire staff in the community to deal with community empowerment. There is money to do that. I have to know which community would like that because I do not know which community he is talking about. We do have community empowerment coordinators in our regions. The community decides how they want to use that money. If they want to hire a community empowerment person, we can allow them to do that. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
