Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to give the committee notice--I've deposited it with the clerk--of the following motion:
That, pursuant to Standing Order 108 (2), the House of Commons Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans study current and past management plans for the crab fishery in areas 23 and 24 as well as related licensing decisions, and call to appear the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans with the appropriate departmental officials, Mr. Tim Rhyno, a crab license holder, and representatives of corporate, traditional and aboriginal fleets; that the Committee allocate no more than five meetings to hear witnesses on this issue, and then report to the House on its findings and conclusions.
That will be circulated in both official languages.
