JBS Foods Australia

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:33): Supplementary: I appreciate the minister's response. Is the minister able to outline whether there will be any supports for those farmers who will now lose their off-farm income?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:34): As I outlined, JBS is staying operational until January of next year. If the honourable member has referred to employees, as employees they would be entitled to the assistance that we have just outlined.
