China Trade Trip

The Hon. F. PANGALLO (15:23): Supplementary: can the minister say whether any representatives from the Riverland wine region will be on the trade delegation going on the junket to China?

The PRESIDENT: Minister, you will disregard the bit about the junket, but you did talk about wine representatives accompanying you so I will rule that in order.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (15:24): Indeed. I know that an invitation was put out to industry. I don't have a list in front of me of those who are coming on the final delegation. But I would hope that the importance of re-establishing ties and strengthening our trade relationship would be appreciated by those in this chamber, particularly given the importance of trade for so many industries, including the wine industry here in SA.
