I have a few questions. I am not sure whether the witnesses can answer this one. Regarding the briefing we got on the discussion at EU level, it just said that Germany abstained. Do the representatives from the Department of agriculture know why it abstained? On the next steps, I wonder why the Department may have a public consultation, as opposed to simply having a public consultation.
