“So how does that work with, I mean I saw the memo that you went into the archives for, but now it’s obvious that the village council elections are in fact being politicized.  Would that change that policy now?”

“It is not my decision to change the policy, it is a matter for the Minister of Public Service and his C.E.O. to change, not me.”
