There are a number of tools. As noted, we do collaborate with industry, and there was some sampling done last year in other fisheries that have faced closures. We have also launched index fisheries. We have an index fishery in redfish and similar fisheries in cod. Those things are possible from my tool box as a fisheries manager, but the situation that presented itself last year was unfortunately that the stock was in such bad shape that we felt that this was the decision that needed to be taken.
