Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House that the entire equine community is financially and spiritually devastated by the recent equine influenza outbreak. The full cost has still not been realised. Tony Burke - Federal Minister for Agriculture has not consulted any equine representatives in Queensland and has not consulted widely enough at all. The entire equine community is united against this proposed federal horse levy.
