Minister, the fact nevertheless remains that these organizations had a right to file an application, which means that the money was available for the following year.
I'd like to go back to another point. You say that the multi-year agreements are a good thing and that you have to give them priority. How can you explain, then, the problems of the organizations that have multi-year agreements? A few weeks ago, one organization met with us. It had a three-year agreement, two years fixed, plus an option year.
Why was the third year hell for them and why was everything delayed? If they had a multi-year agreement, why wasn't it simply complied with?
