Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I ask the minister: considering the arrogant and disdainful attitude of the Japanese whaling fleet to Australia and its court proceedings, what other action does the Australian government have, including naval or other surveillance of the slaughter to the south of Australia over this summer? What assistance is the government considering rendering to Sea Shepherd, which is going to go into the defence of the whales in the southern waters in the coming summer?
