To the Honourable President and members of the Senate in Parliament assembled:

The petition of the undersigned shows:

The current low price for fruit within the wine grape industry is unacceptable. Wine grape growers should have the right to negotiate a price for their fruit, not be forced to sell it for whatever the purchaser will take it for, which on some occasions has been below running costs.

The petitioners request that the Senate enforce the Australian wine industry code of conduct as compulsory legislation for all wine grape transactions.
