Senator SIEWERT (Western Australia—Australian Greens Whip) (12:20): I seek leave to make a short statement. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator SIEWERT: The Greens will be opposing this motion. In fact, it does not reflect the will of all WA farmers. There are many WA farmers who do not want to have to grow genetically modified crops or materials. They have been contaminated with genetically modified plants, and that has affected their bottom line. Mr Marsh is a classic example of that. He did not ask to be contaminated. His economic bottom line was severely affected by contamination from genetically modified crops. We will not be supporting this motion and it is not true to say that, currently, every farmer in WA has a choice. They do not have choice when they are contaminated by genetically modified crops. Question agreed to.
