Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, one of the biggest concerns right now to the communities is that there is very little opportunity for input into the quota or actual involvement for commercial fisheries. I am being told by the communities, that they have had no input for the longest time and it's run totally by an advisory council. The concern is with the fish stocks; we don't really know how stable they are. The reports that come out from DFO and RWED seem not to be very consistent. I would like to ask the Minister if he could assure us, in writing, if there is sustainability of fish stocks in Great Slave Lake for commercial fishing. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
