Mr. Chair, I'd also like to move a motion in connection with a study I proposed in the last Parliament.
Regarding the study on the next generation, I move the following:
That pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the committee undertake a five meeting study on the need for training and financial support for the next generation of fishers given the challenges they face entering into the field given the high cost of licences and equipment and that the committee issue a report upon the completion of its work; that witnesses include young fish harvesters and aspiring young fish harvesters; that witnesses include representatives from the fish harvesting industry and fish harvester unions; that witnesses come from a wide variety of regional and linguistic backgrounds, including indigenous representation; furthermore, pursuant to Standing Order 109, the committee asks that the government provide a comprehensive response to its report.
The text should have been sent to the committee members just now.
