I thank the member for her question. The only people who've argued to stop or pause the live cattle trade in recent times are those opposite. When foot-and-mouth disease was an issue in Indonesia, those opposite, including the Leader of the Opposition, called for the trade to be stopped, and Murray Watt kept it open. I suggest, just like on live sheep, they should have a discussion in their shadow cabinet on this.
