Algal Bloom

The Hon. V.A. TARZIA (Hartley—Leader of the Opposition) (14:20): My question is to the Premier. Why won't the government release its summer plan? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

The Hon. V.A. TARZIA: The opposition is aware of various groups trying to plan their summer beach programs, which are being hampered by the current uncertainty over health concerns with the algal bloom. My question to the Premier is: does the plan include contingency plans should the government decide to close our beaches?

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:20): I thank the Leader of the Opposition for his question. As we said, there is a number of elements to the summer plan that are being thoughtfully crafted and developed in conjunction with a range of agencies and other organisations. We have announced publicly, and it remains true, that we intend to release the plan sometime during October. There is a lot of work that is going into this effort, and that will continue right up until its point of release. Once it is ready, it will be released, but we anticipate, and we certainly aim, for that to be in the month of October.
