Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My first question is for Ms. Gibbons.
As you know, we conducted a study recently with the Great Lakes Fishery Commission, and I wanted to do a follow up on that. The committee recently conducted a study looking at the allocation of resources to the Great Lakes Fishery Commission. As you know, the commission has been paralyzed, for lack of a better word, around uncertainty of funding.
I know that the funding has been allocated, but my question is about one of the recommendations that came forward as a result of this study, which is that the portfolio management responsibilities and machinery of government functions for the Great Lakes Fishery Commission be transferred from DFO to Global Affairs Canada. As far as I know, the Great Lakes Fishery Commission has not received a clear response on this. I don't think we've received a clear response as a committee as to the status of this transfer.
Can you please provide an update?
