Can the minister tell this chamber how many programs within South Australia, run by the Centre for Invasive Species Solutions, will be cut next financial year as a result of the loss of recurrent government funding?</text>

SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:36):</by>  I thank the honourable member for her question. I do recall writing to the federal minister earlier in the year, if I recall correctly, in support of funding for the invasive species centre. I haven't had any update since the federal budget in terms of what the impact will be in specific programs. I can certainly seek some additional information and see if that is available and, if so, bring it back. But of course, as the member would be aware, that's commonwealth funding rather than state, but if there is additional information that I can provide to the chamber, I will do so.</text>
