ForestrySA

Mr BELL (Mount Gambier) (14:42): My question is to the Premier. Does the Premier stand by his promise in December 2011? I quote:

There are serious conditions we are putting on the sale to make sure that there is long term certainty for the people that work directly for ForestrySA.

The SPEAKER: I presume he is referring to the sale of the forward rotations.

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier) (14:42): Yes. Well, I presume that the commitments we made at that time are commitments we intend to keep. He didn't outline what they were, but for the sake of—I will pay you the credit of correctly summarising what I said at that time because I can't recall the remarks that I made, but if we made a commitment we'll stand by it.

The SPEAKER: The member for MacKillop is called to order. A supplementary question, member for Mount Gambier.
