My question is to the Prime Minister. Sales of Australian-made prosecco now exceed 200 million annually, the result of the sector investing millions of dollars in the wine variety. The European Union is now pushing for prosecco to be added to the list of food and drinks covered by geographical indication protection under the existing warrant agreement. What is the government doing to protect prosecco growers, including in my electorate of Mayo?
