My understanding is that this was something the B.C. government did; they put in place this RFP. With respect to somehow making this easier in the short run, it's a difficult situation, and I'm not exactly certain how to answer that.
There are a number of groups, not just in this department, that are in the same boat because of the way things have worked out with respect to the election and with respect to funds flowing before we can have approval of the budget and the estimates. So this is a problem.
I think with respect to some of the bigger organizations, they're able to work it out because they have some credibility and some credit, so they are able to do these things.
There was a letter, if I recall correctly, that went out from the department to provinces and settlement agencies to give them some guidance on this, but I'd have to check to see the contents of the letter again.
