FRUIT FLY

The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (15:02): I have a supplementary question arising from the minister's answer. Given the difficulty of horticulture commodity prices, how does the minister propose that the horticulture industry raises its $1 million?

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) (15:02): There is a whole range of options available. We will talk with the industry, look at what activities it currently has in place, look at where it plans to invest future activity. We will work with the industry. As I said, there is a whole range of different options and ideas that we are happy to consider.
