Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time South Australian Tourism Commission South Australian Tourism Commission The Hon. T.T. NGO Legislative Council South Australian Tourism Commission The Hon. T.T. NGO (15:28): Supplementary coming out of the answer: what open and transparent process will the minister conduct to make the appointment to replace Mr Andrew Killey? The Hon. R.I. Lucas Legislative Council The Hon. R.I. Lucas: The same as yours. The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council Minister for Trade The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (15:28): The same process—in fact, it will be a more open and transparent process than the one that was used to appoint Kevin Foley to be chair of Funds SA and a whole range of appointments that were made in the last 16 years. As I said to the honourable member, we actually are not in a rush to fill it. I really haven't started to consider at all who might replace Mr Killey and fill that vacancy. Of course, tourism, as I said earlier, is a very important key part of our economy. As I said, we are trying to get to $8 billion of visitor expenditure by 2020. I will be looking in this sort of round of opportunities, when there are vacancies or if there are further vacancies, to put people on the board that understand tourism for the long term but also are there for the long journey. They are people we can appoint who will be able to serve there for a number of years to support the government's agenda of getting to $8 billion of visitor expenditure by 2020.
