FORESTRYSA

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:34): I have a further supplementary. Does the minister support the forestry round table's rotation length recommendations for the sale?

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) (14:34): Those negotiations have not been completed.

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway: No, the forestry round table—

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway: —not negotiations.

The PRESIDENT: The minister will answer the question in any way she thinks fit.

The Hon. G.E. GAGO: The negotiations have not been completed. Obviously the Treasurer is lead minister involved in those negotiations and consultations and collecting and considering a wide range of inputs into the final considerations that will form the contract in relation to the forward sale of the forests in the South-East.
