I would describe that agreement as one of the many potential supporting agreements or mechanisms that we have outside of the free trade agreement negotiation itself. That would be mutually supportive with the environment chapter that we would plan to negotiate and the co-operation activities that we would undertake under that environment chapter. As in the case of any trading partner with which we have a free trade agreement, we usually have many other bilateral agreements of various natures. The dark vessel agreement would be one of those mutually supportive types of treaties alongside a free trade agreement if we were to conclude negotiations and implement it.
