I will respond to the first part of your comment about your concern regarding our participation on the committee. We respond to all requests that we receive. Whether the invitation comes from a Richelieu Club, the Association des juristes du Manitoba or the press, when we are asked for facts about the Court Challenges Program, we have no hesitation, since it is part of our mandate to clarify the rationale for the Court Challenges Program and its purpose. So I am sorry that you are disappointed. I am sure that if you had been there, we would still have presented the program. If you had personally requested us to have a meeting with you, we would also have been very pleased to meet with you and explain this issue. Whenever and wherever we are asked to explain the program, we do so because we believe that it is part of our mandate.
As for your question about the criteria, I will let the executive director give you the specifics on that.
