Thank you.
This takes me to northern cod, which is mentioned quite a bit in your report.
DFO has nearly doubled its budget. It's had a 40% increase in personnel since 2015. In response to an Order Paper question, I was told that logbook data results since 2019 have not been compiled for the northern cod species. There's a lot of data that's been available without new technology or whatever; it's basically from old technology and it's very old data, but it couldn't be provided to me.
Did DFO not have enough money or personnel, or did the minister simply not make it a priority, Mr. Napier?
