Export Delays

Mr WHETSTONE (Chaffey) (15:00): Supplementary: minister, what measures will the state government put in place to ensure South Australian exporters do not experience similar conditions?

The Hon. N.D. CHAMPION (Taylor—Minister for Trade and Investment, Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Minister for Planning) (15:00): Well, I'm not sure what we can do. Obviously, I will seek advice from my department about whether there are any measures we can take. Sometimes, cybersecurity is primarily an issue for the company. Obviously, there are a number of attacks that companies can come under: some are state-based, some are ransomware-type attacks. Obviously, there is a limited role that the state government might be able to play in this area. It's more likely to fall under the national government, but I will seek a briefing from my department and, as I said before, I am happy to offer the opposition a briefing as well.
