My question is to Senator McKenzie, the Minister representing the Minister for Agriculture and Water Resources. Senator, it's been revealed that the federal government is investigating complaints against senior officers in the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources who allegedly warned staff not to take action against live export companies over animal welfare concerns. Have any of these senior officers been reprimanded as yet? If not, what kind of action could they face?
