My second and final question, in respect of which I am open to correction, is on the community text alert issue. Was there an event in recent days in which the text alert was used to apprehend two individuals? Immediately when the word went out that the alleged offenders were in the area, a text went out and a group of people followed them. Could this not lead to a very dangerous, volatile set of circumstances? If a group of neighbours follows somebody who intends to break into another neighbour's house, it could end up very negatively, perhaps owing to the use of a knife, gun or other weapon. One could end up in worse circumstances. Do the delegates have concerns about this aspect of the text alert system?
