My question is to the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Senator Watt. Exotic diseases such as foot-and-mouth disease and lumpy skin disease have the potential to pose a very serious threat to our livestock industry. Can the minister please update the Senate on the steps that this government is taking to ensure that our nation is prepared should an outbreak occur?
