Tasting Australia

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (14:46): A supplementary arising from the original answer: how many Tasting Australia events will the minister be attending, I guess, as complimentaries?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:47): It's an interesting question. I haven't yet looked at my diary to see whether that is during a sitting week. I'm just not certain. Naturally, I am a very enthusiastic supporter of Tasting Australia given it was a Liberal initiative. As members in this chamber would know, I have said dozens of times that I do like prawns, so I'm sure I will be enjoying some of those. The seafood experience in Innes National Park during the peak of the crayfish season will be a highlight, but I don't know how many events I will attend. It will depend on my diary but, certainly, I'm going to try to get to as many as I possibly can.
