We understand some of the frustration with which Mr. White is dealing. It has come up and been raised repeatedly. The witnesses have also called for improvement in phytosanitary security by the forestry service if we are to prevent any other diseases coming in. What kind of feedback is Mr. White getting on that to ensure that we do not finish up with something else being brought in by the Department or by private companies? What protections are in place so that no other disease, insects or pests like this will come into the country down the road? Are there safeguards in place?
