          <by role="member" id="1820">The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:34):</by>  I did hear that interjection, and clearly there is no airport really close to Bordertown, but certainly at Murray Bridge there are opportunities to get to Adelaide or to fly to Melbourne. There are coaches; you can catch a coach. There is a coach to Melbourne. There are a range of opportunities, I think. So there are other opportunities and other transport opportunities to get to Melbourne from those parts of South Australia.</text>
        <text id="20181129c14f427a9258438b80000380">In my notes we did talk about air. Yes, I do accept that there aren't any airports near Bordertown that are commercial. I do recall somebody wishing that there was an international airport in Kaniva; we could have direct flights to all over the world from western Victoria. But sadly the population is not big enough for that.</text>
