We do not have stats on the perpetrators. Currently, we only have stats for the people who were issued VTIP TRPs. As we said, that's a very small portion of human trafficking. It's people who did not have status when they came to our attention. I have stats on that. In 2022, we saw citizenships from Mexico, the Philippines, Guatemala, Jamaica and Ukraine. Those were some of the citizenships we saw when we issued the VTIP TRPs.
