Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to our witnesses for being here today.
Mr. Stringer, I want to thank you very much for your very clear explanation with regard to the clarity of section 35 and the interplay of the new sections. That was very helpful.
It's also interesting to note that some of the provisions in the Fisheries Act haven't been used since 1920, so I guess these acts cannot be said to be evergreen, can they?
I wanted to ask a couple of quick questions. On the section where you're contemplating the administration of the fines regime, does DFO have an existing process in place to actually administrate and administer these funds, or will it take some new process within DFO to actually do that, whether it be distribution of dollars or actually applications by conservation organizations?
