I can't speak to the specifics of the evolution of the quota key through the eighties and early nineties. I can say there absolutely were changes. There was the establishment of a fleet structure that occurred I think in the eighties, but I'm not able to speak to the specifics of that. But certainly by the time the fishery went under moratorium in 1994, there was the established quota key we're referring to now, with the offshore and the various midshore and inshore allocations, which is the basis upon which the minister's decision is founded.
