South Australian Research and Development Institute

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:51): Supplementary: the minister spoke about the importance of SARDI. Why has SARDI's budget been cut?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:51): I thank the honourable member for her supplementary question. I do suggest she perhaps read the Hansard of estimates because this question was well approached.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: The member is saying that she was there and she listened, but clearly she didn't. There have been no new savings measures in this budget.
