Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Minister, I'd like to thank you and your colleagues for taking time to come and talk with us today. As you know, we hope to be visiting you sometime within the next while, hopefully before the end of 2013, if we can ever get down to making some decisions.
I appreciated your presentation, and I have a couple of things I want to ask you.
One is with regard to the change in governance. The final devolution agreement that has been negotiated—the legislation passed here, and I believe it passed there—provides that inland fisheries management will be transferred from DFO over this next year. Could you comment in terms of how you see those negotiations going? What do you think are a couple of the key points to ensure that this transfer happens smoothly and effectively?
