The Commonwealth Government is still protecting the commercial interests of Multinational manufacturers despite:
-These multinationals pulling the plug on Aussie manufacturing 4 years ago
-That we have a Free Trade agreement with Japan, Australia's primary source of used vehicles
-That the Australian Government will not fully recognise Safety/Emissions/Vehicle Security of Japan, EC & USA

Those concerned with the current "Claytons" used vehicle import regime should write to teir local MP expressing

while, arguably, these FTAs are putting downward pressure on the Average Aussie's income.
