If Senator Joyce has finished with that issue, I have another issue to move on to. I want to check something to do with access. There has been quite a bit of discussion about access to ports and up-country facilities. During the minister’s second reading speech he said:

… if any problems are identified—

with access to up-country facilities—

then the government will take steps to remedy the situation including ... the development of a code of conduct.

Is that promise limited to the formal review process, or, if problems are identified, will that issue be dealt with on a more timely basis?
