My question is to the Minister for Transport. What advice did the Minister for Transport seek about the impact of the government's changes to vehicle emissions standards on the long-term viability of Ford's Australian manufacturing operations, given that Ford identified this as one of the reasons for ceasing manufacturing in 2016? When did he receive the advice and what action did he take as a result of the advice he received?
