What I would say is that all departmental staff receive on a regular basis a basic level of security training—the types of document classifications, entry protocols, access. However, in travelling to a high-threat environment, as would be the case, for example, in Afghanistan or Iraq, we found that our officers required a much higher level of training on some of the threats our diplomats face when they are in areas of high conflict. There is a five-day training program offered by the Department of National Defence on how civilians operate in militarized environments. That is our hostile environment training course. That's an example of the type of enhanced training we're offering for people who are exposed to those types of threats.
