          <by role="member" id="1821">The Hon. G.E. GAGO:</by>  In answer to a supplementary question of the Hon. Robert Brokenshire during question time, I stated that, to the best of my knowledge, the issue of water gap had not been raised with me during my recent Kangaroo Island visit. However, I now wish to put on the record that I have been reminded that I met and spoke with many different individuals during a two-hour public forum, and the issue of water gap was raised by one person.</text>
        <text id="20110726a911af0a5623497f90000432">The discussion focused on the Economic Development Board's report, which has looked at this issue and put forward recommendations to increase the number of people coming to the island, thereby helping to strengthen transport options. It was only a very brief reference that was made but, nonetheless, I have been reminded that the issue was raised, albeit briefly, and therefore I would like to set the record straight.</text>
