DOG FENCE

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY (15:00): By way of further supplementary, what progress is being made on the remote monitoring of the electrified sections by radiotelemetry techniques?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:00): As I said, our current modus operandi is to monitor the fence and inspect it across the state every fortnight in preference to remote sensing. Given the size of the fence, I am sure that members will understand that that seems to be a better course of action.
