Thanks, Madam Chair. I just want to add my voice to the call for more resources for victim services. I raised this in the last Assembly, the Minister knows well. I pushed his predecessor to conduct a review. The review was done. I think it was done well. The report of the evaluation, though, is dated April 30, 2020, so the department has now had it for almost 10 months. I really want to urge the Minister to work with his staff to get the departmental response. I know the evaluation report came in during the pandemic, but I really want to encourage that the department develop a full response, a costed one was mentioned by the deputy minister, and get the resources for the people who carry out that really critical service. Please move it forward. I'm happy to consider a supplementary appropriate, if necessary, but those people do completely thankless work, and we need to resource that service properly. Thanks, Madam Chair.
