HUNTER (14:38):</by>  Supplementary arising from the original answer: the minister on his feet said, 'We're doing everything we can to talk to Rex Airlines'. Who in Rex Airlines has the Minister for Tourism spoken to about the withdrawal of this air service?</text>

          <by role="member" id="1820">The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:38):</by>  I have had a number of discussions with people—I cannot recall the name off the top of my head. I know the Minister for Regional Development spoke to Rex Airlines in the first couple of days. The SATC is in constant contact with the airlines. This morning I met with two different airlines on other issues to do with South Australia's economy. We are in constant contact, whether through me or through the Minister for Regional Development, with Rex Airlines.</text>
