I mean, I'm, I'm [chuckles] not involved in organizing parades, but the Parades Commission was in large part set up to deal, not for this specifically, but, you know, as a result of this specific march, and I think, I think there was an analysis done over the past 10 years of all the parades that has notified, about 63% of the parades were Unionist parades, and 93% of those parades went ahead without restrictions.
