I would echo what Alberto said. The investment in science is important. The movement to the two- and three-year cycles probably made more sense or could be more justified with shellfish in terms of the nature of the species and what we knew about it, with the science that we built up over the years. Given the increasing importance of groundfish with the decline of shellfish, I would echo what Alberto has just said. We probably need to move the time frame back when we do the assessments.
