The government is aware of the growing level of public concern about the safety of Australian pet food. Minister Littleproud has already acted to seek state and territory support for review of the regulation of pet food in Australia in conjunction with relevant stakeholders, including the Pet Food Industry Association of Australia and the Australian Veterinary Association. The review will examine the effectiveness of current policy settings to ensure the safety of pet food in Australia, with a report back to jurisdictions at the Agriculture Ministers' Forum on any required action.
Question agreed to.
