Thank you, Madam Chair. I guess the answer really is whether or not there is an organization in the territories that might bring that idea forward, because the fund isn't one to which the Department of Justice can direct. The Department of Justice, myself, we don't get to say to the committee what they should spend this money on. They are responsible for making those decisions. We have a lot of department support that we use to support the committee so that they can engage with communities, so that they can help the communities to develop programs. Indeed, Community Justice helps directly with some of the community agencies. If there is a community group or organization out there that wants to put an idea forward, then I would say, "Please go ahead and do that," and it will certainly be evaluated. As far as I know, there is no reason why that couldn't come up as being eligible, but again, it wouldn't be up to me to make the final decision.
