Mr. Speaker, as I said yesterday in the House, there is a long-term plan to develop the fishery there. We recognize the importance of it to the south Baffin. We recognize the importance of it to Pangnirtung. There are two competing interests in Pangnirtung. We are extremely interested in the scallops coming out of that particular area. I know there is a problem with the vessel there. I know the engines are out of it, and there may be some cracks in the hull. I am going to lqaluit and Pangnirtung in July. I hope to resolve the issue when I am in Pangnirtung at that time, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
