Rare Earth Mining

The Hon. B.R. HOOD (15:03): Supplementary: given the minister referred to herself by her correct title as the Minister for Forest Industries, has the minister met with the South Australian Forest Products Association to discuss this issue?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (15:03): I meet with the South Australian Forest Products Association on a regular basis. In fact, I meet with all of the peak bodies that have requested it on a regular basis, either quarterly or three times a year for the majority of them. Incidentally, that's something that I think is in stark contrast to the former government. It is certainly something I receive very positive feedback about.
