Resource Committee — Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture for 2005-2006. Before we get going, I will give a very quick overview of the department and the previous year's activities. First of all, I guess, just to touch on some of the economic indicators from the fisheries perspective, the volume of landings in 2004, we had a total of 326,000 tons. The landings value was $605 million, and production value exceeded $1 billion, just about $1.1 billion this past season. Peak employment, believe it or not, increased to 30,300 from 23,300 in 2003, roughly a 7,000 person increase in employment. Groundfish landings, from the resource perspective, declined by 13 per cent to 51,418, and the landed value declined by 11 per cent to $59 million. It is mainly due to lower landings for redfish, American plaice and turbot; partly in redfish because of quota issues and market issues, in American plaice primarily because of the market, and in turbot primarily because of quota again. The shellfish sector was again dominant, with a landed value of $503 million, represented 83 per cent of the total landed value, snow crab and shrimp continuing to be the main species. Despite the 5 per cent drop in snow crab landings to 55,636 tons, due to lower quotas, the landed value increased by 14 per cent, up $301 million from $264 million in 2003. Again, that was primarily due to a very strong market and continued low quota levels in jurisdictions like Alaska. Shrimp landings increased by 15 per cent to 100,167 tons in 2004 and that was, of course, mainly due to increased harvesting effort in the inshore sector and higher quotas in the Gulf fishery where we landed 144 million pounds of shrimp for the first time ever. The landed value for shrimp in 2004 was approximately $155 million. I am not going to go into a great deal of detail on the rest of it, other than to say aquaculture, just to touch briefly, in spite of some difficulties and continuing difficulties in the aquaculture sector, the pro
