Sugar Industry (Application of Transitional Provision) Amendment Bill 2017
This bill aimed to give Burdekin cane growers supplying Wilmar Sugar another year under their existing supply contracts. It would have delayed new sugar marketing rules from applying until 1 July 2018 so Wilmar and Queensland Sugar Limited (QSL) had more time to finalise their on-supply deal. The bill was introduced by Mr Steve Dickson MP as a private member's bill and was later withdrawn, so it did not become law.
