TOURISM COMMISSION

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:26): Did the SATC give a commitment to the regions that the books would be of the same quality and size as they are currently used to?

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) (14:26): I've got no idea. That's just outrageous. This is a matter for regions to be able to input to identify what their needs are, to input those needs into a central system and for the appropriate literature to be put out. The number of pages a region wants, the size, how many pages or the font size or the quality of the paper: they are all operational matters and they are matters for the SATC and the regions to be consulting on together to land on an outcome that meets the region's needs in a timely way.
