Senator LUDWIG (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Minister Assisting the Attorney-General on Queensland Floods Recovery) (14:49): No. This government does not agree with the underlying assumption of that question. The opportunities for the agricultural industry, for the forestry industry and for the fisheries industry are there under a carbon price. The agricultural industry will be able to contribute to a clean energy future. They will be able to continue by participating in sequestering carbon, by participating in the benefits that flow from the Clean Energy Future program. There is also $1.7 billion available to assist the industry. In addition, NRMs, natural resource managers, are working right across Australia as we speak today in workshops, going out into agricultural areas to explain the benefits that will come with a price on carbon.
