DAIRY INDUSTRY

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (15:14): I have a supplementary question. Will the minister ensure that South Australian dairy products are on the shopping list for the Fujian delegation arriving tomorrow?

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) (15:14): As I outlined, an expression of interest process was put in place to invite those people from various businesses and sectors of the industry who were interested in engaging with delegates to come forward. Off the top of my head, I'm unsure whether any dairy producers put their names forward; I doubt it but, as I said, invitations went out—

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: I'm doing planning.

The Hon. G.E. GAGO: —to invite expressions of interest.

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order, the Hon. Mr Ridgway!

The Hon. G.E. GAGO: I've already outlined the engagement process that I've undertaken and the sorts of initiatives that I've been involved in to assist and support the dairy industry through this very difficult time.
