          <inserted>The Adelaide Convention Bureau (ACB) has not appointed overseas sales staff in China or South East Asia. The ACB leverages in-market intelligence from the South Australian Trade and Investment Office network and, when required, senior staff travel to Asia to meet with decision-makers. This approach has enabled the ACB to secure several major incentive tourism contracts to date for South Australia.</inserted>
