Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I indicated earlier, we set the 750 tag allocation based on what information came forward to us that was sold by the January 8th date. We did meet with the outfitters and proposed to them that we allocate this either on proportionate to what was being allocated the year before, the numbers they used, or on an even amount, even breakout. We couldn't get any agreement from the outfitters. Some supported the proportion to what they used last year and some supported an even breakout. We had to take it back and make the decision. We decided on even allocation of 83 per outfitter and a pool that was similar to the year prior. Mr. Speaker, for 2008, the recommendation will be made by June. We will have that information well in advance. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
