I think there are probably lots of good opportunities. I think this committee has an opportunity to look at electronic monitoring not just in the context of having it versus not having it, but in the context of having it along with other programs and other ways of monitoring people in the community. Monitoring is the way people want to go, for many reasons, and electronic monitoring may have some role or purpose in some cases. It's good for the committee to think broadly about other kinds of monitoring as well. I don't see that there are restrictions or problems that would prevent that from happening. There certainly are professionals within the justice community, as well as groups in the community like ourselves, who would be happy to partner with different levels of government to provide support and supervision for monitoring in the community.
