Thank you for the question.

I covered much of my points in my statement. I guess I focus on instances where we've heard of science coming from DFO scientists themselves, whether that's through a CSAS process or through internal communication of science, and science not making its way to the management decisions.

We've heard different examples of how at various stages there can be a block to information. I think that's where the committee needs to focus: on making sure the science information can get to the decision-makers without that block.

I'll leave time for Dr. Korman.
