Mr President, my question is to Senator Canavan, representing the Minister for Resources, Energy and Northern Australia. Given the recent downturn in the domestic meat processing industry and the stand-down of local workers at meat processing plants in Rockhampton and Townsville, can you outline what steps the government has taken or is planning on taking to protect the jobs of those affected in those communities?
