If I can, say something in answer to that same question.

Thank you, council member nurse.

I know that as part of the tenant protection cabinet and even before, its creation earlier this year, there has been an illegal lockouts working group, working across agencies and working with the PD.

I am not part of the group, so I I we can provide you more detail.
1:14:15
But I know they have been working on developing training with PD around these issues, and that they've created a resource guide for homeowners, on this as well for small homeowners on this as well to help guide them in what is, in the legal lockout and what they cannot do.

So, all that information about the training that they've been doing, we can certainly provide you in more detail.
