Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Minister, if the government refuses to immediately resume exports to abattoirs that meet the govern­ment's stated requirements, what will they say to working families such as Steve and Cyndi Bakalian from Northern Feed & Cube in Katherine who, through no fault of their own, no longer have any income and are forced to lay off workers and struggle to pay their bills to other Territory businesses?
