Cruise Ship Strategy

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (16:20): Further supplementary: which of those ports will be your priority, considering the boom in this area?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (16:20): Victor Harbor is one that I see as a perfect destination to have an increased focus on but, again, we will work with the cruise lines. They are the ones that actually market these particular experiences. They are the ones that drive passengers and visitors to our economy. It's really a matter for the South Australian Tourist Commission to work with the cruise lines to work out which destinations they think provide them with the best opportunity to sell berths on the boat and drive more tourists to our regions.
