My question is to the Prime Minister. Prime Minister, the cost of Bass Strait remains the biggest brake on Tasmania's economic development and the easiest to fix. Although the current subsidies help and must be retained in full, they are insufficient and full of gaps. Please, Prime Minister, will you commit to effective subsidies applying to all people, vehicles and freight going both north and south, including all Tasmanian exports bound for international markets?
