Concerning the contribution that seals make to the natural mortality of herring, I would turn to my colleagues from science, who will likely tell us that there isn't a lot of evidence to indicate what the level might be. Certainly, for stakeholders whom we speak with in a variety of fisheries, seal predation is and has been for a number of years a key concern.
I will say that the department authorizes the harvest of both harp and grey seals, and there is no limitation, to the extent that removals of those species have been extremely low in recent years. It has been a long time since the department has had to close the harp seal fishery. The authorization to do so exists, but we are not restricting people from engaging in a seal harvest.
