Cross Border Commissioner

The Hon. J.S. LEE (Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:47): My question is directed to the Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development regarding the Cross Border Commissioner. Given we no longer have a Cross Border Commissioner, can the minister inform the house who is managing and responding to inquiries to the Cross Border Commissioner office?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:47): I thank the honourable member for her question. We have put in place some arrangements while the recruitment process is underway in terms of getting a replacement to fill the role of Cross Border Commissioner. There is still an administrative position in the office and they are also receiving support through the PIRSA office.
