Absolutely, certainly. I mean, the bail issue is complex. Before you even get to the bail hearings, there are a lot of choices about what happens to the accused. Of course, the police don't have to bring someone to court. They can release them on a notice to appear. There are all kinds of choices that can be made to reduce demand, to reduce bail, even before you get to the actual bail hearing. The bail reform analysis that's being done typically looks at those steps even before you get to the bail hearing, to ensure that a fewer number of people are held on remand when the time comes.
