          <by role="member" id="627">The Hon. J.J. SNELLING:</by>  In response to an earlier question about the Zoo, I understood that the government had already placed an observer on the board at the time the financial package was finalised late last year. Now, with further and better particulars, I can advise that the government does not currently have a board director or observer, but the role and scope of the observer is part of the ongoing discussions with Zoos SA.</text>
