Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If child protection is called into question, we would do our normal thing. We'd work with the available authorities in the community to help do some assessment. If it's felt that we needed to step in immediately, we would work with either agencies or other family members that we may be dealing with to provide immediate safety, and then have a worker be involved through, as I stated earlier, travelling into the community. So again it's, not being a social worker myself, it will be on a case-by-case scenario as to what's happening in a community or in that family environment. If arrangements can be made with other family members, for example, in that community, that would allow for a day or two extra to be taken, or if it was a very serious incident that we would have to mobilize on a sooner basis. Thank you.
