Senator SIEWERT (Western Australia—Australian Greens Whip) (14:51): Mr President, I thank the minister for his answer and I ask a supplementary question. Minister, you said there were ongoing discussions with the state. The contention in WA is that this area is being allowed to re-open because the state and the Commonwealth have not been able to settle their differences over the boundaries and that this is collateral damage. Could you confirm if that is the true situation and what is status of those ongoing discussions? Is it possible that you can ensure that trawling does not occur in this particular area?
