Cruise Ship Strategy

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (15:03): Yes, thank you, on the discussion of cruise ships across the state. Regional tourism organisations will be important in making sure local businesses get the full benefit of these cruise ship visits, so has the minister found the funding for multiyear support for regional tourism organisations?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (15:03): I am glad the honourable member asked that question because, if she actually understood, it's a three-year funding commitment, and I am certain that there will be another three-year funding commitment. But the way these things work is you don't just make funding arrangements indefinitely into the future. We might like to make sure that the regions actually gear up from a digital perspective. We might actually want to have a look at what we would like to see in return for the ongoing funding. It's a matter for negotiation between the South Australian Tourism Commission and the regions next year.
