First, the government has put out a consultation paper that that is what we are discussing, which has been welcomed by industry, not just the NFF but also GrainCorp.

You want to construct a scare campaign. It's unfortunate the facts don't support it, isn't it? And it's unfortunate that some of those who you purport to represent are actually not joining in the circus, because, really, who do you represent? You don't represent farmers. You don't represent grain producers. Who do you represent now? Just the people of Elwood.
