Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus
The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:42): My question is to the Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development on the topic of the tomato brown rugose fruit virus. Does the minister have the powers to use ministerial discretion for compensation for growers and businesses subject to quarantine orders; and, if so, will she use them?
The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:42): I answered that question, almost exactly, a few minutes ago, when I said that we are investigating all the options available.
