My question is to Senator Ruston, the Minister representing the Minister for Agriculture, Drought and Emergency Management. The egregious decision in 2011 by former Labor Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Joe Ludwig to shut down our live cattle export industry overnight caused extreme hurt across the industry. It decimated the viability of productive and profitable businesses and destroyed communities and families, particularly across my Northern Territory and Queensland. Can the minister please provide an update to the Senate on the status of the Brett Cattle Company legal case?
