The question was: can the minister explain why growers are allowed to give away fruit in the imposed restriction zones but are not allowed to sell their produce in these zones? Why can't growers accept unspecified donations from loyal customers sympathetic to their plight? Furthermore, I did not say that I wanted the national protocols abolished. I asked whether she would look at making changes.</text>

SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (15:12):</by>  As I said yesterday, and I would have thought was fairly clear from the wording of national protocol, a state minister cannot change a national protocol. What a state minister can do is advocate, as I have done. What a state minister can do is enable and authorise the department to advocate on a national level. All of this has occurred.</text>
        <text id="20250219a2600e4fe81e4e01b0000820">When it comes to movement within zones, I would encourage members here who have an interest, as well as any growers, to go to the PIRSA website. Certainly, they are welcome to contact the hotline as well to get further advice to see what is allowed. But we need to remember that restrictions on movement are to stop the spread of fruit fly. Surely, we all want to stop the spread of fruit fly. It's in no-one's interests to enable a further spread of fruit fly, so I would encourage everyone to become familiar with what the requirements are and if it's unclear to reach out to PIRSA for further advice.</text>
