Finally, I have a research question for Ms O'Sullivan. Can she give us an example of anywhere where this has happened previously? I know the example of bluetongue in a cow in Kent was referenced earlier, but is there an example of bark beetle being found anywhere in the world, perhaps in Scandinavia or eastern Europe, where a ban in importations was effected?
