(a) by derogation of Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) 2847/93, for Community fishing vessels, support vessels, refuel vessels, mother-ships and cargo vessels, to participate in any way in transhipment or joint fishing operations with, support or re-supply vessels appearing on the IUU vessel list;

I think what I see here is the CRTC saying, just a second, let's take a look at this vessel; let's do what rebuilding is necessary; let's do what re-regulation is necessary to reinforce; but then within that structure, let's get a proper balance between the creators, the producers, and the people who are making the financial contributions.

As the finalization of the forthcoming regulations is only one step in the process of reducing the risk of invasions from ships, Transport Canada is also planning the following future actions: to work through the International Maritime Organization to finalize the guidelines necessary to implement the international convention and make necessary improvements to the convention; to participate in research towards the development and approval of ballast water treatment systems; to develop monitoring and sampling strategies and train our inspectors; to support the Depar ...[+++]tment of Fisheries and Oceans in their provision of further scientific advice, including the identification of alternative ballast water exchange zones for vessel traffic to Newfoundland and the Arctic; to confirm Canada's commitment to acceding to the international convention and developing revised regulations to incorporate all provisions of the convention; and to consider other ships' vectors for introduction such as hull fouling.

I believe that the conciliation procedure was successful in the end, for we did at least manage to secure our demand for ships to have to pay a significant contribution towards the costs of the facilities, irrespective of how much they make use of them.
