House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Fruit Fly Fruit Fly Ms BEDFORD House of Assembly Florey Fruit Fly Ms BEDFORD (Florey) (14:41): Supplementary: in the meantime, can the minister update the house on the efficacy of treatment of the outbreak of Mediterranean fruit fly in the Adelaide suburbs and whether the December lifting of quarantine is still on track? The Hon. D.K.B. BASHAM House of Assembly Finniss Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development Fruit Fly The Hon. D.K.B. BASHAM (Finniss—Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development) (14:41): Again, I thank the member for her question. The treatment of fruit fly eradication is something that we as a government take very seriously and we have done enormous work in this space. In particular, we have been looking at the releasing of sterile flies into the region to make sure that we minimise the breeding potential in those regions. We are looking at one of the largest, if not the largest, outbreaks in the state's history, which has been occurring across the northern regions of Adelaide. We are continuing to work in this space to make sure that we can do everything we can to get this region back out of those restrictions and we will continue to do so.
