Cruise Ship Industry

654 The Hon. Z.L. BETTISON (Ramsay) (25 August 2021). What advocacy has the South Australian government provided on behalf of the cruise ship sector?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised:

The South Australian government has been in discussions with the federal government, key industry stakeholders (including the Cruise Line Industry Association Australasia (CLIA) and the Australian Cruise Association) along with domestic and international cruise lines, working towards a safe resumption of cruise framework for Australia and South Australia.

The human biosecurity emergency period under the Biosecurity Act 2015 has been extended until 17 December 2021, restricting entry of cruise vessels within Australian territory.
