 (b) determine the number of tender boat licences as mentioned in subparagraph 18(2)(c)(i) for each person who was given a catch history notice under section 18, taking into account all objections to catch history notices made under section 19 in relation to the number of tender boat licences (if any);
 (c) determine under subsection (6) of this section the number of quota units to be provisionally allocated to each person who was given a catch history notice under section 18;
