WORK HEALTH AND SAFETY ACT

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:25): I have a supplementary question. What will the minister do to ensure that every business in the agriculture, food, fisheries and forestry sectors is consulted?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (14:26): I imagine that responsibility rests with the commissioner. They are required to have a process that sends information out and I am sure that they have looked at all the key stakeholder groups and made sure that information has gone out to them. I am happy to check that that has happened and to make sure that the commissioner's office has met all its responsibilities.
