Hon DAMIEN O'CONNOR (Minister of Agriculture): I stand by my full statement that "I have faith in the innovation of the horticulture and viticulture sectors, and, in fact, all the sectors across the primary area. The shortages projected pretty much every season by horticulture and viticulture have never fully been realised. Yes, it's challenging for some. Some employers never have trouble getting staff; others always seem to have challenges. Yes, there is a shortage now, but, as has been said by people in the paper today out of Martinborough, we're just going to have to work together to get through this challenge to make sure that we don't waste the opportunities."
