Legislative Council Fifty-Second Parliament, Second Session (52-2) 52 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Aquaculture Zones AQUACULTURE ZONES The Hon. M. PARNELL Legislative Council AQUACULTURE ZONES The Hon. M. PARNELL (15:08): I have a supplementary question. Minister, in relation to the consultation process you referred to, is there any reason the public and the agency submissions for the Lower Eyre Peninsula aquaculture zones policy are being kept secret and not being published? The Hon. G.E. GAGO Legislative Council Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for State/Local Government Relations AQUACULTURE ZONES The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (15:09): No. I thank the honourable member for his important question. As he is well aware, this government is a very open and transparent government. Wherever we possibly can, we make information publicly available. One of the reasons that, from time to time, we are unable to do that is when there is commercially sensitive information or where industry input has indicated that it does not want, for whatever reason, its information to be available. I am not aware of any of these issues being raised in relation to that feedback. I am very happy to follow up this issue and to see whether information is, in fact, not publicly available and, if it isn't, why it isn't. If we possibly can make it available, I am very happy to make it available wherever I can.
