Dr. Cecil Beamish:
There are two types of tuna fishing. One is albacore tuna fishing which is just starting its season and we have a substantial quota. Albacore is a summer fishery. Albacore tuna migrate northwards off our zone. We have a quota in albacore tuna fishery and a track record in it. It proceeds as a commercial fishery.
