Thank you, Madam Chair. Volunteer NWT published a report that I think was referred to by one of the Members earlier. The Department of Municipal and Community Affairs and Financial Management Board Secretariat have been working collaboratively on a third-party funding framework which would be a companion piece to the third-party accountability framework. The idea would be to bring some standardization, as the Member Braden indicated, to how we consider different NGOs. That will then help us in the determination of consistency in funding and the like. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. So that was a long answer. That would be yes, I think, through all that process. That was my concern, just making sure that there has been some informal discussion out there with the NGO organizations. I will take that as a yes. Thank you.
