House of Assembly Fifty-Second Parliament, First Session (52-1) 52 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Property Identification Code PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION CODE Mr PEDERICK House of Assembly Hammond PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION CODE Mr PEDERICK (Hammond) (15:07): I have a follow-up question to the Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries. When does the government expect to introduce Property Identification Code registration fees for poultry? Biosecurity SA brochures on the PIRSA website state that there is no requirement to have poultry property registered. The brochure states, 'At this stage you will not incur the registration fee.' However it is apparent that the intention is to introduce that fee for poultry. The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN House of Assembly Napier Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries Minister for Forests Minister for Energy Minister for the Northern Suburbs PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION CODE The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN (Napier—Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Energy, Minister for the Northern Suburbs) (15:08): Again returning to this particular matter, the member for Hammond is probably aware of the fact that the Hon. Rob Brokenshire has flagged his intention to move a disallowance motion on the PIC fee. The opposition leader, on the Leon Byner show, followed up in support of the Hon. Rob Brokenshire, indicating that the Liberal Party would support— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! Point of order. Mr WILLIAMS House of Assembly Mr WILLIAMS: Madam Speaker, the minister is debating the answer to the question. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! Sit down. I will consider very carefully your point of order. At this stage the minister is answering the question in the manner he sees fit, but I will listen very carefully to his answer. The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN House of Assembly The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN: Madam Speaker, if the Liberal Party supports the disallowance, then the question— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! Point of order. Mr WILLIAMS House of Assembly Mr WILLIAMS: Point of order, Madam Speaker: the question is about PIC fees on poultry. It has nothing to do with whether we will support a disallowance or not, and that, quite frankly, is debate. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I want to hear the minister's answer on that, because I think he just clarified it then. Minister, would you like to finish your answer? The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN House of Assembly The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN: I reiterate the point that if the Liberal Party supports the Hon. Rob Brokenshire, then there is no PIC fee and the question is purely hypothetical.
