Mr President, I have a supplementary question. Is the government aware of the continuing lobbying by the organisation Markets for Change, urging Japanese buyers not to purchase plywood flooring produced by Tasmanian company Ta Ann Australia, and the loss of sales this has caused? Will the government send an appropriate trade representative to reassure Ta Ann's Japanese customers of the sustainability of Ta Ann's Tasmanian sourced products and so protect Australian jobs?
