Okay.
In the past Parliament, this committee had testimony from a number of scientists who offered differing perspectives. They felt that the parasite issue had been a concern over the past number of years and they cited a number of studies. It's interesting to hear your perspective.
I do want to ask about the number of licences that have been issued over the past two to three years. Has there been a significant increase in the number of licences, and is the trend going up in terms of the number of licences for new finfish net pens in British Columbia?
