FORESTRYSA

The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (14:59): I have a further supplementary question. Does the minister concede that, without this information being released, employees whose livelihoods are at stake will continue to fear job losses?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Public Sector Management, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises, Minister for Gambling) (15:00): I have already outlined a number of measures that have been put in place to protect job security in the area. I have already outlined those, and I have already outlined the basic thrust of the report, which clearly indicates that there are unlikely to be significant economic or social impacts arising from the sale.
