Yes. I'll take that question, Mr. Chair.
Following your question last Tuesday, we thoroughly reviewed the interim management plan and can confirm that it meets our obligation, or is consistent with our obligation, under the Convention on Biological Diversity.
Several components of the convention deal with broader issues in terms of system plans. And we do have one in Canada in terms of the national marine conservation areas system plan, for example, the approach we are taking to management, the legislation, which the specific national marine conservation area would be brought under.
The interim management plan is focused on ecologically sustainable use, which is consistent with our international obligation but also meets our obligation under the national marine conservation area.
Several other components, such as promotion of public education and enjoyment and working with aboriginal communities, are integral to this plan.
