KANGAROO ISLAND DEVELOPMENT

The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (15:09): I have a supplementary question. Whilst the minister was on the island, was the matter raised regarding the major problem for Kangaroo Island, namely, water gap, and what commitment, if it was raised, did the Minister for Regional Development make to fix this enormous problem and disadvantage to the island?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Public Sector Management, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises, Minister for Gambling) (15:09): I met with a number of people—as I said, RDA board members, the mayor and a number of industry people and members of the public—and I have to say that, during that visit, not one person raised with me the issue of water gap, to the best of my recollection.
