Thank you to the witnesses for appearing. We appreciate your testimony here today.
I want to pick up on what Mr. van Koeverden was talking about, how self-reliance and self-determination are key to helping those in the north sustain themselves and move on.
I'm sorry if you have to repeat some of what you've already talked about. Are there any steps that you see, outside of what you're already doing, that we could be taking in order to give more control to the local communities? As was mentioned many times, when you have local people making local decisions, you can solve problems faster.
Is there anything on your wish list that you have in your minds that we could be doing to help solve this problem faster?
