          <by role="member" id="4339">The Hon. T.J. WHETSTONE:</by>  I would like to add to my answer to a question without notice this afternoon from the member for Wright. I took the member's question to relate to the 2019 AUSVEG SA awards about which I had just answered a question and during which I confirmed my office did not pay for alcohol.</text>
        <text id="201906041c65d460f2c84931b0001084">I would like to update the house that I have now been advised that in the 14 months I have been minister alcohol has been purchased by my office on two occasions: a primary industries stakeholder event in Old Parliament House on 4 July 2018 at a cost of $191, and the second was $360 worth of wine, which was purchased with the purpose of forming a promotional display showcasing South Australian wine regions. The alcohol was not for consumption.</text>
