Pork industry
223. Hon Amanda Dorn to the Minister for Agriculture and Food:
I refer to Western Australia's pork industry.
(a) Can the minister please provide the house with an update of the pork industry's progress to ban sow stalls?
(b) How many piggeries have complied with the industry's policy to ban the use of sow stalls?
(c) What is the prevalence of farrowing crates in the Western Australian industry?
Hon Jackie Jarvis replied:
I acknowledge that this is the honourable member's first question in this place. However, it was put on notice as opposed to being asked without notice. It will be answered in due course through the on-notice process.
