Mr. Ted Massey:

The Senator's points are very valid. There will always be people who will try to exploit certain circumstances but as the Minister of State has said, that is why we have a system of on-the-spot inspections and on-farm controls. Our inspectors go out on the ground to verify things are correct. If the legislation progresses and we get the database in place, those controls will feed into that and verify the quality of the data we have in the database itself. We are looking at risk-based controls at merchant level and at farm level to ensure we have a robust database that will deliver what it is intended to do.
