Senator O'SULLIVAN (Queensland—Nationals Whip in the Senate) (15:57): I, and also on behalf of Senator Back, move: That the Senate recognises: (a) recent comments to the media by Australian Cattle Veterinarians Association president, Dr Enoch Bergman, in support of Australia's live export trade; (b) that Dr Bergman told Australian Broadcasting Corporation Rural on 11 February 2015 that Australia's participation in the live trade enabled it to influence animal welfare outcomes among destination nations: 'if Australia were to be removed from that conversation those cattle would be sourced elsewhere. Our role would be supplanted, and I think we're well engaged to actually influence welfare outcomes where those animals land'; and (c) That the Australian Cattle Veterinarians Association is a sub section of the Australian Veterinary Association and reports on the welfare of sheep and cattle.
