To follow up on that specific point that you made, I think it was you or Monsieur Lanteigne who said a million pounds to two million pounds would be needed, at a minimum, for viability. If that's the case, how many licence holders would that be? How much overall quota would be required, as a minimum for this year, for economic viability, just for the inshore fishery?
