Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Given that most Northern Australian cattle properties are on leasehold land and that livestock are now effectively worthless, can the minister advise the Senate what security beef producers can offer to banks in seeking loans to help them survive while the minister sorts out the mess that he has created in suspending the live cattle export trade to Indonesia?
