In doing the data part, we had DFO appear before this committee on a study we're engaged in right now on illegal and unreported fishing. They said they sort of guess at what the illegal quota is. We saw that in my area last year. They guessed that the elver fishery had been poached to the tune of four to five times the quota within 18 days, so they shut it down, and then let the poaching happen through to the end of July.
Do you think that guessing at poaching of our various species is adequate? There is no dockside monitoring in the summer in southwest Nova Scotia. There's none for the lobster fishery either, when illegal lobster catches are being brought in. Do you think some sort of guess from DFO, based on the current size, is an adequate way to put catch data into the fisheries management plan?
