Thank you, Mr. Knight.

In your opinion, do you think that fish harvesters can play more of a role in the gathering of scientific evidence? I know the industry stakeholders have been asking for more involvement in gathering scientific data to help managers and help the scientists at DFO provide advice to managers. Are the harvesters and the stakeholders correct in saying that they could be a major part of gathering scientific data?
