Mr. Speaker, I believe that once a strategic plan is packaged by the fishermen, then I would be prepared as a Minister to work on it. As we say, time is of the essence. Any type of support or indication of positive action on the part of this government, I know, would certainly be welcome by the fishermen. By the same token, it is my view that they should take responsibility for initiating the development of a strategic plan presented to myself. I will work with the Minister of Transportation, the Minister of Finance and the Premier to see how we should respond to their plan. I would think that we can act fairly quickly. Maybe not on all the elements of that plan as they will present to us, but certainly most of them. Thank you.
