Unfortunately, though, that select committee inquiry has been nothing short of a farce. A totally predetermined outcome that has made an absolute mockery of what an inquiry should look like. The MPI departmental report actually states, and I quote, "Given the Government has made clear its commitments to the ban being in place by 30 April 2023, the recommendations in this report are intended to give effect to this decision. In MPI's view, the bill should progress as it was presented to the House at the first reading." Well, what a shame that that was not made clear to all the submitters who put in the time and effort to make a submission to the inquiry. They were doing their level best to make this Government see sense. Many, many industry submitters made the point that this is a largely unregulated industry, but the vast majority impressed upon us that rather than an outright ban on live exports, the Government should look to legislate for a gold standard—a quality-assurance programme that would set world-leading compliance standards.
