My question is to the Minister for Agriculture, Senator McKenzie. In a deal with One Nation, the minister has finally released the draft dairy code of conduct for consultation. The minister's Nationals colleagues have been left fuming, with one complaining of the minister: 'She can deliver for Hanson but she can't deliver for us.' Another colleague has said:

We've been busting our arses on dairy, holding the line because we were told it couldn't be done, and then Hanson rolls out and claims the whole bloody lot.

Why did it take One Nation to get the minister to bring forward the release of the dairy code of conduct?
