At the request of Senator O'Sullivan, I move:
That the Senate—
(a) recognises the Victorian dairy industry's continued efforts to capitalise on opportunities in China; and
(b) notes that:
(i) a total of 54 301 dairy cattle were exported from Victoria to China during the 2014 calendar year, and
(ii) this has continued to provide a valuable alternative revenue stream for farmers in our southern states.
Question agreed to.
