On the issue of dispute resolution, we've heard testimony that these mechanisms are binding. The implication has been that an objection procedure is no longer part of the NAFO process. I don't necessarily believe that to be true.
Can you describe to us the process by which countries can object now and what the consequences are? And what can contracting parties do post-ratification of this? Is there a timely way to resolve disputes within an ecological cycle—in other words, within the calendar year—within weeks of the actual NAFO decision being made to prevent over-harvesting of the stocks?
