Thank you, Mr. Holder. Your presentation was really very interesting.
I am especially interested in the opportunities for small and medium-sized businesses. They are growing rapidly. But, just like my colleague Mr. Kamp was wondering about production density, I am concerned about the barriers that might be encountered by small and medium-sized businesses trying to get into the market. I believe that it is interesting to consider this as a generator of jobs. Your statistics on employment are very interesting. The market seems to be nicely open for jobs. It is also clear that it could result in benefits for our coastal communities, since it would relieve the pressure on the wild stocks in the world's oceans.
But I still think that there are obstacles in creating new companies, especially small ones, as opposed to medium-sized ones. You briefly mentioned access to capital. To what extent are government and financial institutions, like banks, for example, receptive to this industry? To what extent do those businesses need federal government support? And finally, on the subject of small businesses, what kind of specific support do they need to start up in the aquaculture industry?
