Mr President, I rise on a point of order. Nothing the minister has said is directly relevant to the only issue raised in the question: what consultations were there with the industry about the suspension? Generalities about consultation with the industry about animal welfare are not directly relevant to the only issue: what consultation was there about the suspension? Now the minister is meandering off in another direction which is less relevant still.
