Expedited also, already underway. Commissioner dejesus and the second part of my question is how can it be brought to your attention sooner instead of brought by civilians . If they use a knee to the shoulder blade or some way else, is there going to be a way to bring it out to the sergeants by way of a report or some other way . Yes. Its state [inaudible] in our systems, in our oversight systems is whether there are any gaps as it stands right now, and the way our general order reads, reportable use of force, that level of force, this body control weapon, body weapons, that kind of thing, control holds, wrist control holds, that type of thing, if theres no injury, it has to be categorized, but its not a reportable use of force.
