Finally, in fairness to Bord Iascaigh Mhara, a lot of the challenges our seafood sector faces are out of BIM's control. It can only work with what it has. I just want to say to Ms Bocquel as an outgoing chief executive that, in terms of quota, there is the current issue with mackerel and the overfishing that has happened in terms of aquaculture licensing, and there is the need for legislative change. It is important to say while BIM representatives are here to deal with this issue that there are a range of agencies that are not here that are responsible for this. I thank the witnesses for coming and dealing with our questions. As a committee that meets once a week, a Chathaoirligh, we are determined to grapple with the challenges that are there and try to help to make the sector stronger and to avail of the opportunity, as was mentioned. I thank Ms Bocquel and offer her my best wishes for her new role.
