Shop Trading Hours

The Hon. F. PANGALLO (14:39): I have a supplementary question. Has the honourable member been contacted by or met with the member for MacKillop, Mr McBride, in relation to seeking an exemption to the regulation of shopping hours?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:39): I thank the honourable member for his question. As I said earlier, I meet with the member for MacKillop very regularly—in fact, on Monday he was at the funeral I mentioned. I don't recall him actually asking me for any detail around an exemption. I know it's something that he has promulgated in the media but I don't recall him asking me personally about the details of an exemption.
