DEEP CREEK

The Hon. M. PARNELL (14:50): I have a supplementary question. If the minister does not accept two of the recommendations of the committee, are the other recommendations that the minister is supporting also supported by the commonwealth environment department—which administers the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act under which the wetlands of Fleurieu Peninsula are listed as being a critically endangered ecosystem—or the CSIRO?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Environment and Conservation, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister Assisting the Minister for Health) (14:51): I am happy to take that question and bring back a response. It is likely but, as I said, I will seek clarification.
