At the Moncton meeting, Mr. Moriyasu indicated he was going to give the committee a table of everything. I don't know if that's been submitted yet. If it hasn't, if you could take action to submit it to the committee, that would be helpful for us.
In both Sydney and Moncton we talked about the process, and one of your slides, slide 33, talks about management and conservation:
One of the most successful aspects of this fishery is the consultation process. Comprehensive harvest plans and joint stewardship arrangements were first developed with the snow crab industry.
And they talk about an open dialogue.
The testimony we heard in Moncton was a little bit to the contrary. They said some things go into a black hole, and in the fall they provide information to DFO. Really, they don't see much of the process after that.
Could you elaborate a little bit on the information that you have and your timelines for making those decisions? And when you have these consultation meetings with the fishers, what makes up the advice to the minister? Is there input involved in the advice to the minister? There was some question as to whether that was happening as well.
