14. Subsequent events
Subsequent to year end Infectious Salmon Anaemia (ISA) outbreaks in Nova Scotia, Newfoundland & Labrador and British Columbia were identified.
The Nova Scotia outbreak resulted in product compensation payments of $12.3 million in total. Of this amount, $2.9 million has been recorded in these financial statements as a liability since some salmons were declared infected prior to year end. The remainder of the population was declared infected after March 31, 2012.
In Newfoundland & Labrador, no compensation payment has been issued to date. If all eligibility criteria are met, compensation is expected to be in the same order of magnitude as that of Nova Scotia.
The situation in British Columbia is still evolving and the Agency continues to monitor it.
