I think it would be—and other witnesses have shared this—very important to consult with survivors and victims in order to get a sense of where they're coming from. The challenge with anything automatic is that survivors and victims all have different needs, so a one-size-fits-all approach can be challenging when it comes to meeting the needs of survivors. I appreciate the administrative clarity it provides, but it is certainly challenging to meet individual needs when you're taking one approach to all survivors.
