Rex Airlines

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (14:32): Supplementary, Mr President: how many times did the minister meet with Rex Airlines whilst he was minister for tourism?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade and Investment) (14:32): A hundred per cent more times than the previous government did. I met with them. I flew especially to Sydney to meet with the people in the boardroom. My understanding with their latest issues is that the government was advised by a message to the South Australian Tourism Commission.
