Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for being here today on this important issue. I appreciate your opening comments.
I'm going to go back to what we heard last week from officials with the Department of Fisheries, who stated that the issue had been raised to the highest level of government. We can only take that as meaning to the Privy Council Office, cabinet or the PMO. According to him, it's no longer within the Department of Fisheries.
Can you tell us if you're aware of what level it's been taken to at the government level?
