My question is to the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade. Is the Deputy Prime Minister aware of a recent government publication Managing vertebrate pests: rodents, which shows rats undermine export crops, damaging trade by up to $26 million a year, and which describes Queensland canefield rats as a rising threat? Is the minister taking any action to deal with the emerging threat from Queensland rats?
