MARINE PARKS

Mr GRIFFITHS (Goyder) (15:15): My question is also to the Minister for Environment and Conservation. Can the minister confirm when the government will undertake and make available for public review a comprehensive economic and social impact study on regional communities as a result of the implementation of marine parks and sanctuary zones?

The Hon. P. CAICA (Colton—Minister for Environment and Conservation, Minister for the River Murray, Minister for Water) (15:15): Quite simply, the process we are undertaking is one of engagement with the community. The local advisory groups will—

Mr Griffiths interjecting:

The Hon. P. CAICA: Hang on, let me finish, Steven. I have said one sentence, mate; I respected you—

The SPEAKER: Yes, I uphold that point of order. Minister, you refer to members by their electorate, not by their name.

The Hon. P. CAICA: Yes, I apologise to the member for Goyder. Let me get started, at least, please.

Mrs Redmond interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. P. CAICA: The best thing about the Leader of the Opposition is that I much prefer to read her comments in the paper because I don't have to listen to her shrill voice.

Mr PENGILLY: I have a point of order, Madam Speaker.

The SPEAKER: Order! There is a point of order.

Mr PENGILLY: 128.

The SPEAKER: No, not at this stage. Minister, get back to answering the question and do not reflect on people.

The Hon. P. CAICA: Yes, I am attempting to, Madam Speaker. Quite simply, I am awaiting advice from the local advisory groups. When that advice is received, of course, we need to go through a consultative process once I determine whether or not those zones and no-go zones will be in place; and we will do, simultaneously, an economic assessment. What is the point of doing an economic assessment at this point in time, because it is an information-gathering exercise? No decision has been made.
