The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:27): Supplementary: I thank the minister for her response. I just want to get an answer to the third question, if that's okay, on whether her department has made any requests for additional resources to support those proposed initiatives.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:27): As I mentioned in my original answer, this is a national problem. We want to address it on that level as well as look at preparedness activities for the state. As I said, the resourcing required will be extensive and it is expected that as a national issue that will be raised in national forums.
