Thank you, Mr. Chair. There are many, many small projects that make up these larger budgets. We could provide information specifically to you later, but it would take a lot of time to go through each and every one of them, and I am not sure that I am clear on every single one that is underneath here. I would comment on the fact that many of these projects are done in collaboration with communities, so they would be well aware of what the outcomes of them are. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you for that answer. I think just some high-level summary information would give us a flavour of what kind of projects have been completed, and that would be useful. Thank you very much.

Some of these projects provide funding where ENR receives the funding but then it goes to different departments, where they work on things that are of interest to them, Department of Transportation, my understanding, Public Works. Other projects, we work with communities on those directly. I am not sure, if the LED Project worked, which one of these it fits under, but there are protects on that type of work where it is with communities on observations and changes that they are seeing to the environment related to climate change. Any more specifics, we can provide some documentation on that. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you. I realize that the witness does not have all of this detail at her fingertips, but, as I say, if she could provide some high-level summary of the kinds of projects that have been done, I think that would be very useful. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I believe the ADM just answered that, and she did make a commitment that we would provide to the Members some of the work and some of the projects that were going on. That type of detail, we just do not have at our fingertips right now, so we will commit to providing that to the Members. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
