That's a very astute question, Mr. Kamp. In fact, I was looking at that earlier. The port states measures agreement does not speak to that level of detail. I can only presume that the drafting in proposed section 13 of the Coastal Fisheries Protection Act at some point in the past mirrored the existing drafting in subsection 71(2) of the Fisheries Act. But to answer your question, no, it would not be required by the port states measures agreement.
