RECREATIONAL BOATING FACILITIES FUND

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY (14:46): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, representing the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, questions regarding the Recreational Boating Facilities Fund.

Leave granted.

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY: I understand that the South Australian Boating Facilities Advisory Committee recently made a unanimous recommendation to the minister to approve approximately $1 million of funding from the SA Boating Facilities Fund, which is comprised of moneys collected from fees levied upon boat owners for the Cruising Yacht Club to extend the breakwater at North Haven. I understand that for the first time the minister has refused to accept the committee's recommendation and is not authorising the release of the funds. Can the minister advise why he has decided to go against the recommendations of the committee?

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) (14:47): I thank the honourable member for his most important question and will refer it to the Minister for Transport in another place and bring back a response.
