Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. It is obvious to all of us that the government is setting new records in paying money to people living overseas, but in this case why wouldn’t the government back an Australian made product that exports quality and proven vehicles all over the world? Will the minister personally intervene to have this decision overturned and ensure that the Australian government supports an Australia company and Australian jobs? Will you intervene?
