Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In order to establish this particular budget process as it is based on, could the Minister, for a comparative basis for the next main estimates, indicate which regions have a formal process and which do not? As well, which regions have a fledgling process?
I would be very interested, since there is a significant amount, millions of dollars if not tens of millions of dollars, on the table here. I think it is an important area of cooperation. I would ask the Minister if he could provide that information. Thank you.
