Mr. Dowling mentioned the food ombudsman and the public consultation period that opened a few weeks ago, to which I have made a submission. Has the task force, or any of its members or staff, made submissions to the consultation? What our guests' views on the power the ombudsman should have? What funding mechanism should the office have? Where will it fit in to the new regime of the farming community believing they are getting a fair price for the product?
