against the Federal Court decision which found the snap ban by former agriculture minister Joe Ludwig was reckless and malicious.
Justice Stephen Rares ordered the Commonwealth to pay substantial damages to the Brett Cattle Company class action, which has been running for six years. In a follow-up hearing today, Justice Rares said the two parties would return to court on August 20 to finalise how many producers and businesses would claim money, and how much they would get.
The class action remains open, and there could eventually be hundreds of producers and businesses seeking payments amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars. Farmers have accused the Government of dragging out the process and pleaded with the Coalition, which has been consistently critical of the live cattle ban, not to appeal the court's decision.
If you want to blame anyone it must be JuLiar
Bastards know it was and is cruel. It is indefensible. I hate anyone who supports or participates in this.
PM will support the cruelty no matter what..
Proof, if one needed it, that the PM is totally out-of-touch with most Australians who view this insidious practice as abhorrent and want it stopped.!
