Apiary Industry

In reply to Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (26 November 2020). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. D.K.B. BASHAM (Finniss—Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development): I am advised:

(a) In 2014 the former Government abolished the SA Apiary Industry Advisory Group (SA AIAG). Industry members subsequently formed the Apiary Alliance South Australia (AASA).

It is up to industry to determine their appropriate representation structure.

(b) The Department of Primary Industries and Regions has not received any letters regarding as described.
