Before we move on to questions, I acknowledge the presence of another group, AgriKids, that came to us too late to be included today. I was in touch with Alma Jordan, who is in the Gallery. I acknowledge that the group is doing tremendous work in the area. The submission we received from the group will be incorporated in our report. As someone said earlier, no organisation or political body has a monopoly of wisdom in the area of farm safety or on how we can improve farm safety. If we work together, remain united and take an integrated approach in the education of young people involved, it may be the best way to improve over the next ten or 15 years. We will probably never eliminate deaths on farms. It is a little like deaths on the roads in that human error plays a part. However, that is the hope we are going with. Did Senator Cummins wish to speak?
