I’d now like to discuss the matter of security.
One of the coast guard’s mandates is to ensure the security of vessels that are lost or in distress. I understand that some amount of fiscal slippage has occurred within the coast guard over the last few years. We seem to want fishermen who require our services to pay fees in certain situations.
What challenges do you see and what is your opinion on this question? Do you think it is important that the coast guard offer rapid service delivery to fishing vessels lost at sea, in distress or who experience certain problems? Do you favour a more rigid approach concerning the charging of service fees to fishermen?
