Legislative Council Fifty-Second Parliament, Second Session (52-2) 52 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Tasting Australia TASTING AUSTRALIA The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition TASTING AUSTRALIA The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:42): I have a supplementary question arising from the answer. Will all components and events of past Tasting Australia be part of the future, given the minister spoke of the wonderful food and wine that we have on display? The Hon. G.E. GAGO Legislative Council Minister for Agriculture Minister for Forests Minister for Regional Development Minister for Tourism Minister for the Status of Women TASTING AUSTRALIA 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) (14:42): He does not even listen! Not only does he repeat old questions in this place; not only does he not come into this place with a fresh question, he cannot, even after a week of parliament not sitting, come into this place with a fresh, vital question, something that is a bit politically cutting edge, something that is right on the edge. No; he comes in here with the same old tired, repetitive questions, over and over. I go to lengths to answer the question in detail. I have given a comprehensive, detailed answer to the question about this being an opportunity to refresh and rejuvenate. Refresh and rejuvenate were the words I used, and that is what we intend to do: refresh and rejuvenate. It is highly likely that there will be some changes to the event, but as I said, we are looking at an alternative model, and when that has been decided on, an announcement will be made. The event is not due until 2014, so we have plenty of time to make sure that we have a brilliant Tasting Australia showcase event for the 2014 season.
