Sheep and Goat Electronic Identification

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:22): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of the Minister for Primary Industries regarding traceability.

Leave granted.

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI: In the media on 23 February, the CEO of Livestock SA noted that it 'shouldn't be up to industry to speak on behalf of government'. My question to the minister is: when will she stand up as a leader, stop hiding behind industry on this important matter and provide clarity and transparency to sheep and goat producers in South Australia?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:23): I thank the honourable member for her question. Whilst I don't have the article in front of me, I also recall that in an article, I think on that date, Livestock SA also stated there is a lot of work that needs to be done, and that is true.
