My question is to the Minister for International Development and the Pacific, Senator Seselja. Can the minister update the Senate on how the highly successful Pacific Labour Scheme and Seasonal Worker Program are helping Australian farmers to harvest their crops, which is protecting jobs in regional communities through the impacts of COVID-19 as well as supporting economies within our region?
