There are several conventions, but there's a Foreign Missions and International Organizations Act as well. Basically that act vests responsibility in the RCMP to ensure the safety of the IPPs who are coming to these conferences and also to ensure that the meetings can proceed. That's our focus, in addition to the focus on protecting the community during the course of the event. We're also concerned about the people in the community in and around those events as well.
