Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time GlobeLink GlobeLink The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition GlobeLink The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:40): Supplementary: the minister referred to the importance of rail in his original answer. Does that importance extend to the Overland service between Adelaide and Melbourne? The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council Minister for Trade GlobeLink The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:41): The honourable member should have listened a few months ago, because the owners who run the rail service between Adelaide and Melbourne say that if we took it around the back of the Adelaide Hills, the Adelaide to Melbourne service would actually be able to access the Barossa as a get off and go and visit opportunity. So they actually see GlobeLink and the diversion of the train as an asset if we are to have passenger transport between Adelaide and Melbourne. We have made a decision. It is a decision for the Minister for Transport that we were going to cease funding the Overland.
