KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:55):</by>  Whyalla Port is controlled by another company, but OneSteel Manufacturing, which is now in administration, has contractual obligations and contracts with the port, so I suspect now that OneSteel Manufacturing is in administration and the administration is fully funded, access to the port should flow freely.</text>
