Legislative Council Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Sheep and Goat Electronic Identification Sheep and Goat Electronic Identification The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition Sheep and Goat Electronic Identification The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:20): My question is to the Minister for Primary Industries regarding the South Australian Sheep and Goat Traceability Steering Committee's business plan. Why won't the minister and the Malinauskas government adhere to calls from Livestock SA to make the South Australian Sheep and Goat Traceability Steering Committee business plan publicly available? The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN Legislative Council Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development Minister for Forest Industries Sheep and Goat Electronic Identification The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:20): I thank the honourable member for her question. From my recollection, the statement that I have seen Livestock SA make in publications is that it is up to the government whether they release the report or not, so I am not quite sure of the basis of the question. However, in terms of the basis of the question, the report that has been provided by Livestock SA as a result of funding from the state government to look at the way and the various processes needed to progress the implementation of electronic identification for farmed sheep and goats is the first phase of the agreement. There's still a lot of work that needs to be done around that. I think it's in the interests of the industry to know what it is that will be happening in terms of the plan and the steps, rather than what the different options are which may or may not come to fruition.
