The minister's decision did indeed transition some of the previous offshore quota to indigenous groups as well as the gulf shrimp harvesters.
The minister indicated that her view is that the important thing is that the offshore fleet is crewed and owned by Canadians in coastal communities. Certainly we collaborate and work with the fishing industry, whether it be small inshore vessels and the fleet representatives of those small inshore vessels or with the offshore fleet in order to undertake a variety of data gathering exercises and indeed full fish stock surveys, depending on the particular fishery.
We work closely with the fishing industry throughout the spectrum of vessel sizes and geographic locations on the sustainable management of the fishery. The observation that I would make on that is that all of the sectors are very focused on the sustainable management of the fishery and the long-term success of their operations.
