Legislative Council Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Royal Adelaide Show Royal Adelaide Show The Hon. R.A. SIMMS Legislative Council Royal Adelaide Show The Hon. R.A. SIMMS (14:44): Supplementary: is the minister concerned about media reports that stall owners struggled to make a profit this year, and what is the government doing to support low income families to ensure they are able to go to the Show in the future? The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN Legislative Council Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development Minister for Forest Industries Royal Adelaide Show The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:45): I thank the honourable member for his question. From what I understand, the numbers at the Show were quite similar to previous years, so clearly people are choosing to spend their money in slightly different ways once they are inside the Show. I was very pleased to hear from Will Rayner, the CE of the Show, that there were over 100 activities that were free at the Royal Adelaide Show this year, which I think is particularly important. Also, at the lunch I attended on Friday, I discovered something that I wasn't previously aware of, which is how many free tickets the Show does provide, particularly in some disadvantaged categories.
