Environment Protection Authority Air Quality Policy

The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (14:33): Supplementary, given the answers of the minister: can the minister rule out two proposals in the new regulations: (1) that farmers will not be able to conduct burn offs of stubble within 300 metres of township boundaries, and (2) that pitfires and open campfires, particularly in tourism areas, will be banned unless they only use coke and no other material? That's what is being told to the people out there in the real world.

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (14:33): I fail to see how the honourable member can find that as a supplementary from my original answer. If he wishes to ask that question he should do so when his time is up for a question.
