Primary Industries and Regions Department

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:26): Supplementary: what is the cost involved to taxpayers for that move?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:26): As I mentioned, when the proposal was put forward it indicated that there were offsetting benefits. Some of those would have been monetary, potentially, but others would have been around capability and efficiency, so that is the reason for the move.
