I can assure everybody here in this chamber that those on this side know just how important this issue is to Western Australians, which led to the backflip. So my question is this. The National Farmers Federation was quoted last week as being 'paralysed with fear' regarding these laws. You assured the Senate, saying, 'I have no doubt that Minister Plibersek will ensure that all stakeholders are consulted.' So how many times specifically has the minister consulted with the NFF, and what is your government planning to do through your cultural heritage laws?
