SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (15:03):</by>  I thank the honourable member for her supplementary question. Of course, $20 million is available to South Australia for the fight against fruit fly, and I am very pleased that we have had ongoing support from the federal government in regard to that. In terms of any announcements that might be made, I look forward to being able to say more into the future, but I have ongoing engagement with my federal colleagues on a range of matters.</text>
