Can the minister inform the house when the Regional Development Strategy will be finalised and released to the public? The Hon. D.K.B. BASHAM House of Assembly Finniss Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development Regional Development Strategy The Hon. D.K.B. BASHAM (Finniss—Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development) (15:15): I thank the member for his question. It is certainly a very important piece of work that is being done to make sure we look after the regions of South Australia, and we continue to see the benefit to the regions of the Marshall Liberal government supporting those regions going forward. This strategy is a very important piece of work, which we are continuing to finalise in development to release. It is very much imminent at this stage. Certainly, we haven't got a particular date on which it will be released, but it is very close to getting to that point of being able to release to the public.
