Thank you, Madam Chair.

My question goes back to a question that Mr. Fraser had with respect to the financing and who would be responsible for paying.

Clause 91 provides that if there are reasonable grounds to believe that a person has committed a violation, the minister of transport or the minister of fisheries and oceans may either enter into a compliance agreement or issue a notice of violation. Can you go a bit deeper into that in terms of what it actually means? Does that mean there's an out for individuals who may in fact have committed a violation with respect to this legislation?
