My question is to the minister for the environment. I ask: what is the progress in Australia’s case against Japan on whaling in the International Court of Justice in The Hague? Is the Australian government seeking an injunction to prevent the whaling of Australia’s whales, the humpbacks and the southern right whales—we have seen a fantastic display at Cape Pillar in Tasmania just this week—when they arrive back in Antarctic waters?
