DAWKINS (14:44): </by> By way of further supplementary, why is it that in the Premier's ministerial statement at no stage did he mention food or food production in relation to this India engagement strategy but mentioned Aerospace, defence, energy, natural resources and clean energy, as well as education and training, but no food?</text>

GAGO (Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Tourism, Minister for the Status of Women) (14:45):</by>  My understanding is that in relation to the India strategy a great deal of consideration has been undertaken around food but my understanding is that a number of issues need to be put in place first before the food relationships can be rolled out. Work is being done and, as I said, food is one of the seven key priority planks of this government. Food is right up there, and to suggest somehow that it isn't is outrageous. As I said, we have an opposition that has no policy itself in relation to food. It has no food plan, no policy, no vision, no direction. As I said, they have no ideas and no discipline; they are too busy fighting amongst themselves to come up with any decent idea or any policy initiative of their own.</text>
