South Australian Tourism Commission

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:31): I have a further supplementary question arising from the original answer: the minister informed this chamber that it was the Friday, before this became public knowledge three days later that it had been awarded to an interstate firm, when he was informed of the decision. Who informed the minister of that decision on the Friday?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:32): My recollection is I received a notification on that Friday.

The Hon. K.J. Maher: A phone call or email?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY: A recollection on that Friday.
