Senator THOMAS (WESTERN AUSTRALIA)
- I direct a question to the Minister representing the Minister for Primary Industry. I asked the Minister a question early this week following some information recently disclosed by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics which showed that vegetable oil could be a more economic alternative fuel than ethanol or grain alcohol. Because of primary producer interest in this matter I ask whether the Minister has any more information regarding excise and other taxation policies on vegetable oil used as a fuel.
