Yes, and I appreciate the latitude that Mr. Sobral gave me in the first place. I want to go back to the point he made on the technical assistance relating to the PEACE PLUS project and those difficulties that sometimes arise in the context of governance. It is possible to get a synopsis or brief from Mr. Sobral in that regard? That would be useful. I met with a number of groups that met with a facilitator the other night in regard to PEACE PLUS. Mr. Sobral has the themes and the pillars, but there is the question of flexibility beyond that.

It ensures that best practice is being implemented by the councils, and whoever else, and that we are not overly impacting people in operating the governance rules too rigidly. If we could get that from the witness, I would really appreciate it.
