The Minister and I are more than familiar with this issue, so we might not bother with the history of it. My question is very specific. It relates to trawling inside the six-nautical-mile zone by vessels more than 18 m long. We know there is a long history here so my question is specific. I know the communication period for submissions has closed. I know there were an extraordinary number of submissions. Have they been analysed? When will a report be available? When will a policy be available and when will it be implemented?
