Fruit Fly Outbreak

The Hon. D.G.E. HOOD (15:18): Supplementary: what mechanism has been used to alert those surrounding and those within this specific area that this outbreak has occurred? How have they been communicated with?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (15:19): I am not quite clear whether the honourable member is referring to the most recent detection or the outbreak from January.

The Hon. D.G.E. Hood: The most recent.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: I understand that the peak body was advised sometime, I think, yesterday afternoon, and PIRSA endeavours to communicate with affected growers through a variety of mechanisms.
