My answer has two parts.
First, it is a matter of resources. So, this year, in 2010, we provided additional resources to the mission in Nairobi. We sent seven additional people to help with the mission on site, mostly because of the large area to be covered, but that's not the only reason. We actually receive more applications in China in a month than we receive in all of Africa in a year. So it's not really the territory that is the problem, but the communication process, which is often difficult. In offices like those in Nairobi—it's not the only place experiencing this—we need more staff to process the same number of applications. So that answers one part of the question.
I believe my colleague has already addressed the second part of the question. A set number of refugees is accepted each year. So the fact that we have more or less staff members does not make a big difference at the end of the day. If we are asked to take care of 2,000 refugees in a year, that's exactly what we'll do. If we were to move resources, for example, from Damascus to Nairobi, we would also have to change the number of refugees that we accept in the two places.
So that somewhat explains the 50-month wait time. It's not that it actually takes 50 months, but there's already a huge waiting list and we are processing the applications that were submitted earlier.
