Environment committee Well, of the ones you see here, five were done up until 2013. For 2015, I'm not sure of the exact date. Up until 2015, there are six, according to our report. Remember, again, that we aren't convinced that Finance Canada has done a good survey of the entire population in order

Fisheries committee When we looked at the integrated fisheries management plans, we did find that some of the plans that were in place included vague objectives. They are also supposed to do performance reviews of these IFMPs and look at their objectives. In many cases, they did not do that.
