I thank Senator Madi­gan for the question, sort of! The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade provided advice to the government on New Zealand's rights under the WTO agreement in the event that Australia failed to comply with the outcome in the apples dispute, including the possibility of suspension of concessions. The Minister for Trade has explained in some detail the sorts of actions New Zealand would be able to take. I am happy to take on notice any other parts of the question and see if there is any further information that the minister would like to provide.
