I'll kick it off, and maybe Cal or Monsieur Paradis may wish to join.
The minister's direction on science has been pretty clear, and in that context a portion of the transformational funding was put to science, around $9 million or so. The minister has also directed that the ERC reductions relative to stock assessment not happen. That's $6 million, so that's $15.5 million or something.
The minister also directed that the two new fisheries research vessels Commissioner Da Pont referred to will not be online soon, so the minister also directed we not pay off the Templeman, so that's effectively another $3 million to science. As well, a portion of the money out of the transformational funding that went to the coast guard helps address science and conservation and protection vessel availability.
In terms of the overall impact, I would say that under this minister there is clear direction to spend more on science in the order of magnitude of probably $20 million a year. At the moment that may mean new money coming into the department or it may mean reallocation internally within the department to ensure that's what occurs.
The additional complicating factor is the Laroque court decision, which has impacted on how we interact with the fishing industry in terms of how science is funded in joint projects with the industry, and there's a fair amount of analysis going on on that as we speak, Mr. Chair. The exact number is difficult to come up with, but I probably could do a better job than I've just done if you would like a more precise estimate. In other words, the year-over-year science funding number doesn't necessarily do justice to the amount of money that will be spent on science based on the minister's direction around ERC and so on, but I don't know.
Cal, do you want to add to that?
