Rex Airlines

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (14:34): Is the Minister for Tourism telling this chamber that he has no responsibility for tourism in the South-East and for airline travel for tourists into the South-East?

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! Let the minister speak.

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:35): It is fabulous to have all this assistance, Mr President. I have an immense amount of responsibility for tourism statewide, for the honourable member.

The Hon. I.K. Hunter interjecting:

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY: For the South-East. I am one of the many members in this chamber who was born and bred in the South-East and hold it as a very dear part of the state and still have an immense number of friends in that part of the world. It is a very important part of the state and that is why we announced a whole range of regional initiatives in the lead-up to the election, to support the regions and not turn our back on the regions, like your government did.

The PRESIDENT: Before I call the next question, can members keep the discipline of referring to members of the other place by their electorates.
