Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus

The Hon. F. PANGALLO (14:35): A supplementary question—

The Hon. C.M. Scriven: From the original answer.

The Hon. F. PANGALLO: From your answer, that you haven't given.

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. F. PANGALLO: Why hasn't Perfection Fresh received the results that determined that the virus was in their glasshouse, and resulted in the government shutting them down and 500 people losing their jobs? Why aren't you showing them the results?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:36): I thank the honourable member for his further supplementary question. My understanding is that there has been frequent communication between PIRSA and the affected business. That communication is continuing, and as much information as is able to be provided is being provided.
