My question is directed to Senator Abetz representing the Minister for Agriculture. The government is proposing to permanently increase the levy on mangoes. A secret ballot of levy-paying growers was conducted on this proposal. Can the minister advise how many of the 793 mango growers eligible to vote in the secret ballot agreed with the proposed levy increase on mangoes and how many opposed it?
