Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you again, witnesses, for attending.
Mr. Sullivan, there's a scientific study or paper on DFO's website that says that mackerel spawn at between 9° and 12°. Earlier today, we heard testimony from one of the DFO scientists about how they will do the spawning mass bioscience in water of 8°, 6° and even up to 14°, outside of the spawning biomass time, and it's all done at the same location in the gulf. I wonder if you could comment on that issue about doing science when the spawning biomass is not in the water temperature that's ideal for spawning.
