Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as for how formal a process it is, MACA generally requires from the community either a motion from the council, the hamlet council, or from the band that would support their requests for capital. We then take that back to FMBS. It's through that process that the needs of the communities are addressed if the government can afford those needs. However, the process of getting back to the community to advise them what we can afford to do that year, we do through a consultation with them after we approve the business plans and they see some of these results in the budget. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
