I call the meeting to order pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the study on the issue of new rules for boat stability, and in particular the matter of the fishery boat length requirements.
We welcome our witnesses to the table, members of the audience, and certainly the members of the Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans.
I think we have a couple more people who are going to appear, so maybe we will get started in the interests of time.
We have Mr. John Gillett and Hedley Butler.
Mr. Gillett.
