Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Minister and Deputy Minister, for being here.
With regard to the funding for the $2.5 million for the investigation of missing persons, will any of that actually be spent in this fiscal period? In effect, what I'm asking, Mr. Minister, is this. Given the length of time, including the year-end break that we'll be having, will any of these agencies be able to get their applications in and approved and to actually begin to spend money before the end of March?
