I think it is worth while putting on the record that on 14 June 2011 Gunns announced on the Australian Stock Exchange the sale of its Triabunna export woodchip facility. I understand that sale is to be to an entity established by the family owned logging and haulage company Aprin Pty Ltd. Gunns further announced that the sale was conditional on satisfactory progress in the implementation of the Tasmanian forest statement of principles. The Australian government has not been approached regarding the sale or operation of the Triabunna mill.
