Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to the witnesses for being here today.
It's hard to figure out exactly what we're talking about today. On one side, we're talking about redfish allocations and fishery in the gulf, and then we're talking about exploratory lobster licences on the other side.
I want to have an idea, when we're looking at the redfish side, of how quotas are set in the gulf at this point for redfish. There are a number of participants in that who may not be adjacent to that stock. I'm just wondering how quotas are set and how we decided that quota is going down. How is that allocation happening?
