The best strategy will win out because it is a competitive process. Given the standard of strategies that have been submitted and from what I know having worked with the councils and the local community development committees, they know what their job is. I do not expect any strategy to be in any way substandard. All council officials and local development companies have been working hard on to have quality submissions made. I do not expect too many difficulties with the standard of submissions made.
