That will definitely depend on circumstances and the type of program proposed. With regard to lobster, for example, conservation measures have proven to be very effective. There is the minimum size question, for example. There are all the conservation measures that would leave more lobster in the water and would be combined with economic improvement. Lowering the number of fishermen would make it so fishermen would not suffer economic losses and a larger volume of the species would be left in the water. So this is a trade-off, in other words, to improve the future of the fishery and the economy of the fishermen engaged in this fishery over the long term.
