Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Australian Embassy, Israel Australian Embassy, Israel The Hon. T.A. FRANKS Legislative Council Australian Embassy, Israel The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:16): Supplementary: did the minister, as trade minister, not feel the need to communicate anything to the Prime Minister with regard to this announcement? The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment Australian Embassy, Israel The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (15:17): As I said, I have not experienced any questions or comments from any exporter. In my experience, when we have tensions in the South China Sea and other tensions with China, we deal at a state level, a subnational level. There has been no request of me to make any representations to the Prime Minister in relation to the embassy that the honourable member has spoken about. We just get on with business. We talk to the people who are buying the products and try to make sure that good deals are done to benefit South Australian exporters and grow our economy.
