Yamba Quarantine Station
Ms BEDFORD (Florey) (15:01): My question is to the Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development. How many of the approximately 7,400 fines issued at the Yamba quarantine station would not have been issued under the previous policy approach, and what is the value of fine revenue under the new policy to date?
The Hon. T.J. WHETSTONE (Chaffey—Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development) (15:02): I thank the member for Florey for her question. There would have been no fines issued under the previous regime at Yamba because the fines were never enforced. We have not introduced the fines; we are just enforcing the fines now. If we are talking about what is the collective, the amount of money that has been issued for those fines, that is something I will have to speak to Biosecurity SA about and come back to the member with.
