Most of the points have been covered. I thank both witnesses for coming here and making a presentation. I suppose it is all about how much milk is sourced in the South, and the number of jobs that Strathroy Dairy is creating in the South. Senator O'Neill asked whether the dairy buys milk from mainland Britain. There is a fear among Southern farmers with regard to Northern milk coming in, flooding the market and reducing the price. There were problems in the past when the price was reduced. Farmers, producers and farm organisations are afraid that the prices achieved by producers in the South will be reduced. I think nearly everything else I wanted to ask has been covered.
