Getting on with passing this legislation instead of diverting it to an inquiry paves the way for more jobs in value adding through onshore processing. It is absolutely critical that we get on with planning and working with communities on the $107 million transition support package. We need to get it rolled out to scale up meat processing and create new jobs in the communities, right around my home state of WA, that grow our nation's sheep, exporting meat and feeding the people of our nation. The time for delay is over. It is time to get on with delivering on this commitment.
