This proposal consists of two components:
- Component 1 would shut down Australia’s live export industry from 1 July 2022.
- Component 2 would provide payments to farmers to assist in the transition from live animal exports to a domestic boxed and chilled meat trade. This would consist of $1 million in 2022-23, and $2 million in both 2023-24 and 2024-25.
