The federal government has delayed a controversial decision to recoup export fees. 

Exporters had been facing a rise in regulatory costs from July, as Labor returns to a cost recovery mechanism. 

But those fees will now be introduced on the first of July, 2027. 

Rural Editor Emily Minney spoke with Australian Livestock Exporters Council Chief Executive Mark Harvey-Sutton to get his reaction.
