MAHER Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition Tour Down Under The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:31): Further supplementary: is the minister confirming that he has held the view that the Tour Down Under spectator numbers are falsely inflated? The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council Minister for Trade Tour Down Under The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:31): No, I haven't held the view they have been falsely inflated. I have questioned, as I said, if they would like me to talk about the time I was in opposition, I questioned those numbers, whether it was any particular community event, to check their veracity. We had a number of briefings from the Tourism Commission and others when in opposition to tell me how those numbers were arrived at.
