To outline the circumstances that will apply here: in the event that a determination were made about what supports are provided within a participant's plan, the application, if you will, to the CEO would indeed be a form of review. It is a request to take an alternative approach to the supports that are funded within the participant's plan.
It's not within the scheme of either the legislation or this amendment that that be subject to further review. It is the case that, if the CEO determines not to provide that support that is not on the prescribed list as a substitute support, of course funding is available for the original supports that were to be the subject of that substitution, and, in light of all of that, it is not, either in the legislation or the amendment, capable of further review.
