D.G.E. HOOD Legislative Council Kangaroo Island Airport The Hon. D.G.E. HOOD (15:11): My questions are for the minister representing the Minister for Tourism: 1.	What is the budget to upgrade the airport on Kangaroo Island, as has recently been announced in the media? 2.	Is that amount to be shared with the Kangaroo Island Council or will it be fully funded by the state government, by the state taxpayers? 3.	When is it expected that the development will be completed and the new airport will be fully operational? 4.	What, if any, at this stage—although I am sure there has been some work—are the projections for interstate flights in particular to the island, perhaps on a weekly basis? The Hon. K.J.
