Live Sheep Export

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:38): Supplementary: does the minister believe that the $107 million package is adequate for transition?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:38): There are a number of factors that we have been advised are included in that package: $64.6 million to support sheep producers and the supply chain, for example. That is a significant proportion. In terms of the detail of how that will be administered, that is not as yet clear, so I would suggest that it would be pure speculation by anyone to be able to say whether that is adequate, given we don't know the exact details of where that $64.6 million will be directed.
