I have one more question on that. This would be for Ms. Redmond, I think.

If it is adopted, would that be an area these governments could challenge on a legal basis, that there is something that would prohibit the ability for this to evolve? Is there some type of legal basis on which indigenous governments are protected from legislation or policy that would limit the ability for a treaty to evolve? Could there be some type of legal ramification from that?
