I think in the early stages in 1990 or 1991, this fishery was defined as an exploratory fishery. Again, I stand to be corrected, but I believe it is now defined as a fishery and the quota is actually allocated by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. This is just to put it all in perspective here for my honourable colleague, we have gone from 30 jobs in 1990 and 1991 to now 151 in seasonal, part-time and permanent jobs. We are proceeding with a fish plant that meets the employment needs of the fishermen. I don't know whether that answers the question, but that is my answer.
