Alternatively, the FRCC report, Towards Recovered and Sustainable Groundfish Fisheries in Atlantic Canada, validated the DFO science advisory report. It recommended testing the hypothesis that predation by grey seals is a major factor preventing recovery of groundfish stocks in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence.

Mr. Jean-Yves Roy (Matapédia Matane, BQ): Mr. Speaker, as the Fisheries Resource Conservation Council wrote in its recommendations to the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, “Predation by seals is now the dominant source of exploitation on groundfish in the Gulf”.

That starting with the 2013 season and for a period of four years, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans implement and manage a grey seal targeted removal program in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence to reduce the level of the herd by 70,000 animals; and, that this program, based on the Fisheries Resource Conservation Council’s report entitled “Towards Recovered and Sustainable Groundfish Fisheries in Eastern Canada”, work in conjunction with continuing research and evaluation which should lead to a long term sustainable management plan of grey seals in Atlantic Canada and Quebec; That research protocols to be performed during the removal of grey seals be established to test the hypothesis that predation ...[+++] is the major factor preventing recovery of groundfish stocks in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence, as well as to better understand and monitor the effects of the target removal; and, That Department of Fisheries and Oceans officials appear before the Standing Senate Committee on Fisheries and Oceans at the earliest opportunity after the first harvesting season to report on the progress made with the grey seal targeted removal program.

In applying the precautionary approach to groundfish management, action must be taken immediately in order to improve the opportunities for conservation and recovery of cod and other groundfish stocks, without waiting for absolute scientific proof of the effects of seal predation.
