Director, Aquaculture Science Branch, Department of Fisheries and Oceans

I would say that it's been fairly stable for the last number of years in terms of fishery scientists. But certainly for aquaculture, the department received some funding in 2000-01 that allowed us to increase our complement. As well, we received some funding in 2008, which again allowed us to increase our science complement for aquaculture.
