BROKENSHIRE (14:45): Will the minister also agree not only to talk to her department, but SAFF in relation to events next year for the Australian Year of the Farmer? The Hon. G.E. GAGO Legislative Council Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Tourism, Minister for the Status of Women AUSTRALIAN YEAR OF THE FARMER The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Tourism, Minister for the Status of Women) (14:45): I have already indicated that we are speaking to all appropriate people within the sector, but it is not just the department's responsibility. The sector also has some responsibility, too—if it wants to promote itself—to think about what events and activities it might want to badge. It is supposed to be a joint approach. PIRSA is certainly doing its bit. We will continue to do that. I have already indicated that I have asked the agency to bring me some options and suggestions about specific things that PIRSA might be involved in, and they will do that for me.
