SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:25):</by>  I am happy to provide that operational detail on notice. Certainly, we have had a lot of general media around how we are releasing the sterile fruit fly and the increase in production. In the Riverland there has certainly been multiple media coverage of it; I have been involved in a great deal of that myself. When we had the release of sterile insects here in Adelaide just a couple of weeks ago, again we talked about that operation and had quite good coverage through the media. In terms of the more operational matters, I can take that on notice and bring back a response.</text>
